- catalog abstract "Annotation "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. It is also written for those engineers who want to update their knowledge and stay current on 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.".
