“A Textbook of Engineering Mechanics” is a must-buy for all students of engineering as it is a lucidly written textbook on the subject with crisp conceptual explanations aided with simple to understand examples. Important concepts such as Moments and their applications, Inertia, Motion (Laws, Harmony and Connected Bodies), Kinetics of Motion of Rotation as well as Work, Power and Energy are explained with ease for the learner to really grasp the subject in its entirety. A book which has seen, foreseen and incorporated changes in the subject for 50 years, it continues to be one of the most sought after texts by the students.

This book aims to provide a complete coverage of topics to meet the needs of first year undergraduate engineering students as per revised syllabus of Mumbai University. It enables students to develop an understanding of the basic concepts of the theory. All topics are written in easy language and are put point wise. For most of the students solving numerical is big problems, this difficulty is simplified by including several solved numerical in every chapter. Author's long experience in teaching the subject will ensure that the book will enthuse the students to assimilate the basic understanding of engineering physics and help them understand the concepts of various branches of engineering in the higher semesters. Key Features • Complete coverage of revised syllabus • Numerous solved examples • Previous years university questions included • Simple diagrams and easy language

Principles of Engineering Mechanics is written keeping in mind the requirements of the Students of Degree, Diploma and A.M.I.E. (I) classes. The objective of this book is to present the subject matter in a most concise, compact, to-the-point and lucid manner. All along the approach to the subject matter, every care has been taken to arrange matter from simpler to harder, known to unknown with full details and illustrations. A large number of worked examples, mostly examination questions of Indian as well as foreign universities and professional examining bodies, have been given and graded in a systematic manner and logical sequence, to assist the students to understand the text of the subject. At the end of each chapter, a few exercises have been added, for the students, to solve them independently. Answers to these problems have been provided.

Each chapter begins with a quick discussion of the basic concepts and principles. It then provides several well developed solved examples which illustrate the various dimensions of the concept under discussion. A set of practice problems is also included to encourage the student to test his mastery over the subject. The book would serve as an excellent text for both Degree and Diploma students of all engineering disciplines. AMIE candidates would also find it most useful.

The Importance Of Environmental Studies Cannot Be Disputed Since The Need For Sustainable Development Is A Key To The Future Of Mankind. Recognising This, The Honourable Supreme Court Of India Directed The Ugc To Introduce A Basic Course On Environmental Education For Undergraduate Courses In All Disciplines, To Be Implemented By Every University In The Country. Accordingly, The Ugc Constituted An Expert Committee To Formulate A Six-Month Core Module Syllabus For Environmental Studies. This Textbook Is The Outcome Of The Ugc S Efforts And Has Been Prepared As Per The Syllabus. It Is Designed To Bring About An Awareness On A Variety Of Environmental Concerns. It Attempts To Create A Pro-Environmental Attitude And A Behavioural Pattern In Society That Is Based On Creating Sustainable Lifestyles And A New Ethic Towards Conservation. This Textbook Stresses On A Balanced View Of Issues That Affect Our Daily Lives. These Issues Are Related To The Conflict Between Existing `Development Strategies And The Need For `Conservation . It Not Only Makes The Student Better Informed On These Concerns, But Is Expected To Lead The Student Towards Positive Action To Improve The Environment. Based On A Multidisciplinary Approach That Brings About An Appreciation Of The Natural World And Human Impact On Its Integrity, This Textbook Seeks Practical Answers To Make Human Civilization Sustainable On The Earth S Finite Resources. Attractively Priced At Rupees One Hundred And Fifteen Only, This Textbook Covers The Syllabus As Structured By The Ugc, Divided Into 8 Units And 50 Lectures. The First 7 Units, Which Cover 45 Lectures Are Classroom Teaching-Based, And Enhance Knowledge Skills And Attitude To Environment. Unit 8 Is Based On Field Activities To Be Covered In 5 Lecture Hours And Would Provide Students With First Hand Knowledge On Various Local Environmental Issues.

This second edition, extensively revised and updated, continues to offer sound, practically-oriented, modularized coverage of the full spectrum of fundamental topics in each of the several major areas of electrical and electronics engineering. Circuit Theory Electrical Measurements and Measuring Instruments Electric Machines Electric Power Systems Control Systems Signals and Systems Analog and Digital Electronicsincluding introduction to microcomputers The book conforms to the syllabi of Basic Electrical and Electronic Sciences prescribed for the first-year engineering students. It is also an ideal text for students pursuing diploma programmes in Electrical Engineering. Written in a straightforward style with a strong emphasis on primary principles, the main objective of the book is to bring an understanding of the subject within the reach of all engineering students.

This book is based on expertise of the authors obtained through their long teaching careers. It is put up in a simple language so that it could cater to one and all. The attention of the students is drawn to the topics of bending moments and twisting moments which are not properly explained in most of other books. They have been explained with the help of Vectors, which are used to present these quantities in such a way that one can easily distinguish between these two, as what is Bending moments and what is Twisting Motions.

The Book Provides A Glimpse Of The Fascinating Field Of Mechanical Engineering To The Entrants To Engineering Colleges.It Gives An Insight Into The Major Areas Of Mechanical Engineering, Like Power Production, Energy Alternatives, Production Alternatives And The Latest Computer Controlled Machine Tools.The Book Is Made Interesting With Numerous Sketches And Schematics - A Definite Advantage In Understanding The Subject.

This Is A Comprehensive Book Meeting Complete Requirements Of Engineering Mechanics Course Of Undergraduate Syllabus. Emphasis Has Been Laid On Drawing Correct Free Body Diagrams And Then Applying Laws Of Mechanics. Standard Notations Are Used Throughout And Important Points Are Stressed. All Problems Are Solved Systematically, So That The Correct Method Of Answering Is Illustrated Clearly. Care Has Been Taken To See That Students Learn The Methods Which Help Them Not Only In This Course, But Also In The Connected Courses Of Higher Classes.The Dynamics Part Is Split In To Sufficient Number Of Chapters To Clearly Illustrate Linear Motion To General Plane Motion.
