Updated throughout for the second edition, Introduction to Mechanical Engineering: Part 1 continues to be the essential text for all first-year undergraduate students, alongside those studying for foundation degrees and HNDs. Written by an experienced team of lecturers at the internationally renowned University of Nottingham, this book provides a comprehensive grounding in the following core engineering topics: thermodynamics, fluid mechanics, solid mechanics, dynamics, electrical and electronic systems and material science. It includes questions and answers for instructors and for self-guided learning. As well as mechanical engineers, this book is highly relevant to civil, automotive and aerospace engineering students.

This text is an established bestseller in engineering technology programs, and the Seventh Edition of Applied Strength of Materials continues to provide comprehensive coverage of the mechanics of materials. Focusing on active learning and consistently reinforcing key concepts, the book is designed to aid students in their first course on the strength of materials. Introducing the theoretical background of the subject, with a strong visual component, the book equips readers with problem-solving techniques. The updated Seventh Edition incorporates new technologies with a strong pedagogical approach. Emphasizing realistic engineering applications for the analysis and design of structural members, mechanical devices, and systems, the book includes such topics as torsional deformation, shearing stresses in beams, pressure vessels, and design properties of materials. A "big picture" overview is included at the beginning of each chapter, and step-by-step problem-solving approaches are used throughout the book. FEATURES Includes "the big picture" introductions that map out chapter coverage and provide a clear context for readers Contains everyday examples to provide context for students of all levels Offers examples from civil, mechanical, and other branches of engineering technology Integrates analysis and design approaches for strength of materials, backed up by real engineering examples Examines the latest tools, techniques, and examples in applied engineering mechanics This book will be of interest to students in the field of engineering technology and materials engineering as an accessible and understandable introduction to a complex field.

Primarily intended for the first-year undergraduate students of various engineering disciplines, this comprehensive and up-to-date text also serves the needs of second-year undergraduate students (Mechanical, Civil, Aeronautical, Chemical, Production and Marine Engineering) studying Engineering Thermodynamics and Fluid Mechanics. The whole text is divided into two parts and gives a detailed description of the theory along with the systematic applications of laws of Thermodynamics and Fluid Mechanics to engineering problems. Part I (Chapters 1-6) deals with the energy interaction between system and surroundings, while Part II (Chapters 7-15) covers the fluid flow phenomena. This accessible and comprehensive text is designed to take the student from an elementary level to a level of sophistication required for the analysis of practical problems.

This book follows the classical division of engineering mechanics as taught at universities in Germany and is devoted to strength of materials, i.e. the determination of stresses and of deformations in elastic bodies. The aim of this book is to provide students with a clear introduction and to enable them to formulate and solve engineering problems in this field. For this purpose, the book provides a number of examples. This book is intended for university students of mechanical engineering, civil engineering, mechanics, but also all other courses in which the contents of this book play a role. The Contents Introduction to linear elasticity - Plane stress state - Bars - Beams - Beam deflections - Shear stresses in beams - Torsion - Energy methods - Buckling of bars The author Univ.-Prof. Dr.-Ing. habil. Christian Mittelstedt is the head of the institute for "Lightweight Construction and Design" at the Department of Mechanical Engineering at Darmstadt University of Technology.
