Brought to you by Longman, this classic textbook is the essential guide to the basic principles of applied mechanics for all students of engineering, bringing together the principles of statistics and dynamics in relation to forces, thermo- and gas-dynamics and fluid flow. Applied Mechanics is relevant for BTEC NC/D and HNC/D and first year degree courses in engineering, including mechanical, production, civil, structural, building, aeronautics and avionics. The revised third edition now matches current courses and provides:
