In order to familiarize students with the use of several basic mathematical tools, such as vectors, differential operators and differential equations, it first presents the elements of vector analysis that are needed in the subsequent chapters. Further, the Mathematical Supplement at the end of the book offers a brief introduction to the concepts of differential calculus mentioned. The main text is divided into three parts, the first of which presents the mechanics of a single particle from both the kinetic and the dynamical perspectives. The second part then focuses on the mechanics of more complex structures, such as systems of particles, rigid bodies and ideal fluids, while the third part consists of 60 fully solved problems. Though chiefly intended as a primary text for freshman-level physics courses, the book canalso be used as a supplemental (tutorial) resource for introductory courses on classical mechanics for physicists and engineers. 606 $aMechanics 606 $aContinuum mechanics 606 $aMechanics, Applied 606 $aClassical Mechanics 606 $aContinuum Mechanics 606 $aEngineering Mechanics 615 0$aMechanics. 615 0$aContinuum mechanics. 615 0$aMechanics, Applied. 615 14$aClassical Mechanics. 615 24$aContinuum Mechanics. 615 24$aEngineering Mechanics. 676 $a531 700 $aPapachristou$b Costas J.$0843154 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910427687403321 996 $aIntroduction to Mechanics of Particles and Systems$91881589 997 $aUNINA
