A Textbook Of Applied Mechanics (1898) - Andrew Jamieson - Bog

A Textbook of Applied Mechanics is a comprehensive guide to the principles of mechanics and their practical applications. Written by Andrew Jamieson and originally published in 1898, this book covers topics such as statics, dynamics, kinematics, and kinetics, as well as the properties of materials and their behavior under various conditions.The book is divided into several sections, each of which focuses on a specific aspect of mechanics. The first section covers the basic principles of mechanics, including force, motion, and equilibrium. The second section deals with the properties of materials, such as their strength, elasticity, and ductility, and how these properties affect their behavior under different conditions.The third section of the book covers the mechanics of machines, including the principles of work, energy, and power, as well as the design and operation of various types of machines. This section also includes a detailed discussion of the laws of motion and their application to the design of machines.The final section of the book is devoted to the mechanics of fluids, including the principles of hydrostatics and hydrodynamics, as well as the behavior of fluids in pipes and channels.Throughout the book, Jamieson provides numerous examples and illustrations to help readers understand the concepts and principles of mechanics. He also includes a number of exercises and problems at the end of each chapter to allow readers to test their understanding of the material.Overall, A Textbook of Applied Mechanics is a valuable resource for students and professionals in the fields of engineering, physics, and mechanics, providing a thorough and practical introduction to the principles and applications of mechanics.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
