Statics For Dummies

Autor JH Allen
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 2 sep 2010
Statics is the branch of mechanics that studies rigid bodies (such as trusses, beams, dams, etc. ) at rest and the forces to which they're subjected. Statics For Dummies gives readers a thorough introduction to this foundational branch of engineering and easy-to-follow coverage of solving problems involving forces on bodies at rest.
