ENGINEERING APPLICATIONS A comprehensive text on the fundamental principles of mechanical engineering Engineering Applications presents the fundamental principles and applications of the statics and mechanics of materials in complex mechanical systems design. Using MATLAB to help solve problems with numerical and analytical calculations, authors and noted experts on the topic Mihai Dupac and Dan B. Marghitu offer an understanding of the static behaviour of engineering structures and components while considering the mechanics of materials knowledge as the most important part of their design. The authors explore the concepts, derivations, and interpretations of general principles and discuss the creation of mathematical models and the formulation of mathematical equations. This practical text also highlights the solutions of problems solved analytically and numerically using MATLAB. The figures generated with MATLAB reinforce visual learning for students and professionals as they study the programs.
