Almost
encyclopedic in scope, this comprehensive one volume source covering stress
analysis, dynamics, thermodynamics, and fluid mechanics will be an essential
reference for any engineer's library. It combines concise coverage of
mechanical engineering principles with illustrative worked-out examples
and includes illustrated software applications with some simple programs
which may be used to solve problems from other parts of the book.
