- Additional material on shear stress in beams: Two new sections have been added in Chapter 9 to discuss additional topics related to shear stress in beams. These sections are:
- 9.9 Shear Stress and Shear Flow in Thin-Walled Members
- 9.10 Shear Centers of Thin-Walled Open Sections
- New coverage of energy methods: Chapter 17 – Energy Methods has been developed to discuss the application of work and strain energy principles, virtual work principles, and Castigliano’s Theorem to solid mechanics problems.
- Updated coverage to match the latest design standards: Design equations in Chapter 16 for the critical buckling stress of structural steel columns have been updated to conform to the latest provisions of ANSI/AISC 360-10 Specification for Structural Steel Buildings.
- New and revised homework problems: More than 40% of the problems are new or revised, broadening the variety of problems available for many topics.
- Focuses On Visual Learning: The illustrations use color, shading, perspective, and dimension to clearly convey concepts while striving to place these concepts in the context of real world components and objects. These illustrations have been prepared by an engineer and educator (the author), to train future engineers.
- MecMovies: The text integrates computer-based instruction with the addition of the MecMovies , a web-based application designed by the author to promote visual learning and a deep, intuitive understanding of the concepts.
- Problem-solving schema: The book and web-based features are designed to assist students in organizing and categorizing concepts and problem-solving procedures.
- Style and clarity of examples: This textbook places great emphasis on the presentation and quality of example problems. The author’s commentary explains why various steps are taken and describes the rationale for each step in a solution process while the accompanying illustrations help build the mental imagery needed to transfer the concepts to differingsituations.
