Condition: BRAND NEW
ISBN: 9780471705116
Year: 2006
Publisher: John Wiley & Sons Inc (US)
Pages: 720
Description:
In the 6th edition of Mechanics of Materials,
author team Riley, Sturges, and Morris continue to provide
students with the latest information in the field, as
well as realistic and motivating problems. This updated
revision of Mechanics of Materials (formerly Higdon,
Olsen and Stiles) features thorough treatment of stress,
strain, and the stress-strain relationships. These topics are
covered before the customary treatments of axial loading, torsion,
flexure, and buckling, allowing for earlier introduction of more
realistic problems, such as those associated with combined
loadings.
Riley, Sturges, and Morris continue to write in a
student-friendly style that includes new illustrations throughout
each chapter. The text stresses the use of fundamental principles
and the concepts of mechanics to solve all problems. As a result,
students must apply the information presented in each chapter to
answer realistic problems instead of simply using formulas. This
problem solving method motivates students to learn the material
because they see how it is used in the real world.
