Advanced Dynamics
Advanced Dynamics (Aiaa Education Series)
Shuh-Jing Ying,
Publisher: AIAA (American Institute of Aeronautics & Ast
ISBN: 1563472244   DDC: 620.104   Edition: Hardcover; 1997

Summary:

Advanced Dynamics is recognized as an important subject of study for
all engineering students and professionals in competitive university
programs and throughout the industry. This textbook adeptly explains
the fundamental laws of motion, but goes a step beyond by covering
new topics such as gyroscopic effects, missile trajectories,
interplanetary missions, multistage rockets, and use of numerical
methods. In addition, theories such as the rotation operator are
taken to a new degree and developed further, far surpassing
comparable textbooks. The book balances theory and application and
relates all subjects to practical problems, real-world situations,
and recent advances that affect everyday life. This text
distinguishes itself with a more complete introduction to recent
developments in dynamics, new and practical applications to help the
reader remember key theories and uses, and an appreciation that the
subject matter is riddled with ongoing problems that need new
solutions. These distinguishing features make Advanced Dynamics more
complete, interesting, and understandable than existing textbooks and
resource materials. Problems appear at the end of each chapter, and a
complimentary solutions manual is available for professors. Advanced
Dynamics is also written for those engineers who want to update their
knowledge and stay current of the changes in the field, but do not
have the opportunity to attend formal classes. The reader will take
away a thorough understanding of the foundation of mechanical
engineering, which is necessary to read and assimilate scholarly
papers and leading articles published in journals and peer-reviewed
magazines.
