MECHANICS OF MATERIALS
In this core textbook for the mechanics of materials course, Vables distinctive pedagogical approach translates
into exceptional features that enhance student participation in learning.
It assumes a complementary connection between intuition, experimental observation, and mathematical
generalization, suggesting that intuitive development and understanding need not be at odds with mathematical
logic, rigor, and generalization. This approach also emphasizes engineering practice without distracting from
the main point of the text. With strong practical examples and real-life engineering problems praised by reviewers,
Mechanics of Materials promises to provide the skills and principles that students need to organize, integrate,
and make sense of the flood of information emerging in the world of modern engineering.

Completely revised and expanded to include new material based on advances in the field and the authors
research, the second edition of Engineering Mechanics of Composite Materials analyzes the behavior and
properties of composite materialshigh-stiffness, highstrength, lightweight components that can be used in
infrastructure, energy production, aircraft, automobiles, biomedical products, and a wide array of other
applications. The book begins by discussing materials in wide use today and continues with a review of the
micromechanics of elastic behavior and the macromechanical elastic response of a composite lamina, including
transformation relations for the three-dimensional case. Basic theories covered in detail include maximum stress,
maximum strain, phenomenological (interaction) theories (Tsai-Hill and Tsai-Wu), and mechanistic theories based
on specific single or mixed failure modes (Hanshin-Rotem). In addition to classical lamination theory, the effects
of transverse shear and applications to sandwich plates are discussed. Hygrothermal effects, and stress and
failure analysis of laminates are also covered. The book closes with an extensive description of test methods
updated to include those for textile composites and three-dimensional properties. Engineering Mechanics of
Composite Materials, Second Edition, is ideal for advanced undergraduate and introductory graduate courses in
materials science and mechanical engineering.

SI Adaptation
Introduction to Fluid Mechanics provides a balanced and uniquely visual treatment of the tools used in solving
modern fluid mechanics problems. Presenting an image-intensive approach to fluid dynamics through classic
kinematic concepts, the book demonstrates the importance of flow visualization in a framework of modern
experimental techniques and flow simulation. Detailed photographs and diagrams of fluid motions and
phenomena throughout the text help students to see and understand why equations change drastically for
different types of flows. Output illustrations from CFD (computational fluid dynamics) programs illustrate the
possibilities of flow behavior, enabling students to concentrate on ideas instead of mathematics. The book also
provides the means to solve interesting problems early in the course by presenting case studies at the beginning
of the text. These cases are revisited later to reinforce empirical rules and help explain advanced methods of
analyzing a flow.
Creating a foundation for further study in this important and exciting field, Introduction to Fluid Mechanics is
ideal for a first course in fluid mechanics. The book is designed to accommodate students concentrating in
mechanical engineering as well as those in the civil, aerospace, and chemical engineering fields.
Features
CD icons direct students to the Multi-Media Fluid Mechanics CD, websites, movies, and books so that they can easily view further
visual demonstrations of each topic.
CFD icons indicate subject matter that directly or indirectly relates to CFD computational methods to familiarize students with this

Whitney draws on more than thirty years of academic and industry experience to fill this significant gap in the
mechanical engineering curriculum. The first book to develop a systematic approach to the modeling and
design of assemblies, this text addresses the subject on two levels. Assembly in the Small develops a systematic
theory for the design of assemblies with their functions in mind, starting from the basic principles of mechanical
constraint and including methods for representing assemblies mathematically. In addition, important assembly
analysis techniques such as predicting variation and generating assembly sequences are covered using a consistent
mathematical formulation. Assembly in the Large deals with the role of assemblies in product development,
including product architecture, design for assembly, and manufacturing strategy, as well as design and evaluation
of assembly processes and systems.
