Mechanics can be defined as the science which describes and predicts the conditions of rest or motion of bodies under the action of forces. It is divided into three parts
1) Mechanics of Rigid Bodies
2) Mechanics of Deformable Bodies
3) Mechanics of Fluids
Mechanics is a physical science since it deals with Physical Phenomena. It is also the foundation of most engineering sciences and is an indispensable pre-requisite to their study.
This book by Beer & Johnston has set new standards the way Engineering Mechanics can be taught in colleges and is followed all over the world.
