Description
For undergraduate Mechanics of Materials courses in Mechanical, Civil, and Aerospace Engineering departments.
Thorough coverage, a highly visual presentation, and increased problem solving from an author you trust.
Mechanics of Materials clearly and thoroughly presents the theory and supports the application of essential mechanics of materials principles. Professor Hibbeler’s concise writing style, countless examples, and stunning four-color photorealistic art program — all shaped by the comments and suggestions of hundreds of colleagues and students — help students visualize and master difficult concepts. The Tenth SI Edition retains the hallmark features synonymous with the Hibbeler franchise, but has been enhanced with the most current information, a fresh new layout, added problem solving, and increased flexibility in the way topics are covered in class.
Also available with Mastering Engineering™. This title is also available with Mastering Engineering, an online homework, tutorial, and assessment program designed to work with this text to engage students and improve results. Interactive, self-paced tutorials provide individualized coaching to help students stay on track. With a wide range of activities available, students can actively learn, understand, and retain even the most difficult concepts. The text and Mastering Engineering work together to guide students through engineering concepts with a multi-step approach to problems.
New to this Edition
- Approximately 430 problems, which is about 30% of all problems, have been added to this edition and involve applications to many different fields of engineering.
- UPDATED! Review problems have been updated and placed at the end of each chapter, so that instructors can assign them as additional preparation for exams.
- REVISED! Improved Preliminary and Fundamental Problems, located just after each group of example problems, now feature expanded solutions in the back of the book. They offer simple applications of the concepts covered in each section and, therefore, provide the chance to develop problem-solving skills before attempting the standard problems that follow. These problems are an excellent way to prepare for exams – including the Fundamentals of Engineering Exam.
- A new layout, with additional design features, provides a convenient display of the material. Almost all topics are presented in a one- or two-page spread to minimize page turning.
- UPDATED! Enhanced or updated photos illustrate how engineering principles apply to real-world situations, and how materials behave under load.
- REVISED! Updated and re-written material throughout, enhances clarity and makes the text more current. Some of the artwork has also been enlarged and improved to support these changes.
