About the book

"Intermediate Mechanics of Materials covers all the essential topics needed in a second-level mechanics of materials, strength of materials, or stress analysis course. This new book takes a unique approach with an emphasis on helping readers build an intuitive feel for mechanics concepts. This is done through a wealth of physical examples from everyday life, as well as from engineering applications. Readers are shown how to perform simple experiments to test theoretical concepts, thereby giving them a deeper understanding of how those concepts are used in engineering design formulation. Numerous chapter problems, ranging from basic to challenging, provide a strong connection to engineering practice and design factors. Class-tested by the author in its early versions, this book provides a fresh, modern approach to a topic often considered dry and difficult."--BOOK JACKET.
