A System Of Analytic Mechanics (1855) - Benjamin Peirce - Bog

""A System of Analytic Mechanics"" is a comprehensive treatise on mechanics written by Benjamin Peirce and originally published in 1855. The book covers a wide range of topics in classical mechanics, including kinematics, dynamics, and the theory of rigid bodies. It also includes discussions of Lagrange's equations, Hamilton's principle, and the calculus of variations. Peirce's approach to mechanics is highly mathematical, and the book is filled with complex equations and derivations. However, he also provides numerous examples and applications of the principles he discusses, making the material more accessible to readers with a background in mathematics and physics. Overall, ""A System of Analytic Mechanics"" is an important work in the history of mechanics, and it remains a valuable resource for students and researchers in the field today.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
