HANDBOOK OF ENGINEERING FUNDAMENTALS: A Complete Reference in Statics, Dynamics, Thermodynamics, Materials and Circuits

Handbook of Engineering Fundamentals >Every engineer leans on the same core principles - scattered across a dozen textbooks. This handbook puts them in one place and works every one out on the page. Fourteen chapters build each discipline from first principles and prove it: free-body diagrams to the Carnot limit, stress and strain to Kirchhoff's laws, the Reynolds number to the flexure formula. No hand-waving. Every equation is defined, every example carried through to the answer, every number one you can check yourself. Inside: Statics, dynamics, mechanics of materials, fluids, thermodynamics, heat transfer, circuits, electronics, materials, economics, statistics, and engineering design - in a single volume More than 200 worked examples with complete, unit-tracked solutions Over 300 practice problems, every one with a boxed answer Reference tables of constants, unit conversions, and material properties >Written for the student learning the fundamentals and the professional who never stops needing them. Master the theory, follow the working, and keep the one book that carries you through the degree, the exam, and the career that follows.
