Engineering Mechanics: Dynamics 14th Edition by Russell C. Hibbeler offers a clear and thorough presentation of the theory and application of engineering mechanics. Engineering Mechanics empowers students to succeed by drawing upon Professor Hibbeler’s everyday classroom experience and his knowledge of how students learn. This text is shaped by the comments and suggestions of hundreds of reviewers in the teaching profession, as well as many of the author’s students.
The Fourteenth Edition includes new Preliminary Problems, which are intended to help students develop conceptual understanding and build problem-solving skills. The text features a large variety of problems from a broad range of engineering disciplines, stressing practical, realistic situations encountered in professional practice, and having varying levels of difficulty.
A variety of problem types stress practical, realistic situations encountered in professional practice, with several levels of difficulty to give students the practice they need.
In addition to the Fundamental and Conceptual problems (see below), there are numerous standard problems that depict realistic situations encountered in engineering practice. Throughout the book, you'll find an approximate balance of problems using either SI or FPS units. Most problem sets arrange the problems in order of increasing difficulty, and answers are included in the back of the book.
Preliminary Problems are designed to test students' conceptual understanding of the theory and are placed throughout the text before the Fundamental Problems. Preliminary Problem solutions require little or no calculation and are intended to help students develop a basic understanding of the concepts before they are applied numerically. All the solutions are given in the back of the text.
Located just after the Example Problems, Fundamental Problems offer students simple applications of the concepts and help them develop their problem-solving skills before attempting to solve the standard problems that follow. These problems offer an excellent means of preparing for exams and can be used at a later time to prepare for the Fundamentals in Engineering Exam. All of the Fundamental Problems have complete solutions and answers in the back of the book.
Conceptual Problem sets appear at the end of the chapter and involve conceptual situations related to applying the principles presented in that chapter. These analysis and design problems are intended to engage students in thinking through a real-life situation as depicted in a photo. These can be assigned after the students have developed some expertise in the subject matter and they are suitable for individual or team projects.
