Book Description:

Mechanics of Materials book by the author Madhukar Vable synthesizes the empirical relationships of materials into the logical and deduced framework of mechanics to produce formulas for use in the design of structures and other solid bodies. The field has seen incredible growth in the last twenty-five years. A few years ago, today’s routine industry techniques and practices were merely research topics; studies that applied only to civil engineering, mechanical engineering and aerospace engineering now apply to such common place things as electronic packaging, medical implants, geological movements and wood products that meet specific strength requirements. It is into this rapidly changing world, that Madhukar Vable’s book Introduction to Mechanics of Materials takes its place as a standard text in mandatory courses for civil engineering majors and most mechanical and aerospace engineering majors. Author Madhukar Vable’s distinct pedagogical theory translates into exceptional features within the eBook that enhance the reader’s participation in learning.
