Mechanics of Materials by Russell C Hibbeler
Mechanics of Materials, 8e, is intended for undergraduate Mechanics of Materials courses in Mechanical, Civil, and Aerospace Engineering departments. Containing Hibbeler's hallmark student-oriented features, this text is in four-color with a photorealistic art program designed to help students visualize difficult concepts. A clear, concise writing style and more examples than any other text further contribute to students' ability to master the material. Click here for the Video Solutions that accompany this book. Developed by Professor Edward Berger, University of Virginia, these are complete, step-by-step solution walkthroughs of representative homework problems from each section of the text.
This text describes the major challenge from the classical beam theory, and then presents the transformation method, plus a few examplesI think the author's presentation style is very systematic and clear. - L.R. Xu, Vanderbilt University
The best features of this text include its clear presentation of course materials, and very good examples. - L.R. Xu, Vanderbilt University
I enjoy teaching this book. The best MOM book on the market for the students. - Akthem Al-Manaseer, San Jose State University
