Editorial Reviews: Known for its accuracy, clarity, and applications, Meriam & Kraige's Engineering Mechanics: Dynamics has provided a solid foundation of mechanics principles for more than 50 years. Now in its new Sixth Edition, the text continues to help students develop their problem-solving skills with an extensive variety of highly interesting problems related to engineering design. In the new edition, more than 40% of the homework problems are new. There are also new sample problem and more photographs that link theory to application. To help students build necessary visualization and problem-solving skills, the text strongly emphasizes drawing free-body diagrams--the most important skill needed to solve mechanics problems.
Spotlight customer reviews: Customer Rating: Summary: Engineering Mechanics Dynamics Comment: Good Great Excellent Didn't expect hard cover (not disappointed) Didn't expect occasional imperial units (slightly impressed) Has so far been an invaluable resource for my Mechanical Engineering Degree Customer Rating: Summary: Terrible Explanation, Good Problems Comment: This book is terrible at teaching. Each section provides the concept for the following questions, but does not explain things in detail. You won't be able to learn dynamics with this book alone. You will need the solutions manual. Customer Rating: Summary: Should come with Kraige Comment: I have used this book and the accompanying statics book all within the last year. The author is my Dynamics professor. These books are not as thick as other Statics/Dynamics books I have seen, and the reason is that they are more problem-set oriented than lecture. You really need a good teacher to help you understand the problems and material. This is where having the author as the teacher helps. The instructional sections of the book are minimal, and I have found the problem sets better for the learning process. If I were to change this book I would add numerical solutions to every problem, not just the odd ones. And for whatever reason, the publishing oversight is uber critical of posting solutions anywhere other than the classroom, and this can be a nuisance sometime. Fun fact...a self-proclaimed car guy, Kraige loves problems with cars in them, so there are quite a few of those in there. Customer Rating: Summary: OK book Comment: This book explains the concepts very carefully. However, it jumps topic to topic without a smooth trancision. Examples are very elementary, but the problems at the end of each chapter gets tedious quickly. Prefer if the hard problems are approached with more examples. Biggest down fall I see is that there are no answers at the back for any problems. More Reviews
