An Introduction to Mechanical Engineering Part 1: Development from 5-18 Years

Autor MICHAEL CLIFFORD, Kathy Simmons, Philip Shipway
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 23 apr 2009
An Introduction to Mechanical Engineering is an essential text for all first-year undergraduate students as well as those studying for foundation degrees and HNDs. The text gives a thorough grounding in the following core engineering topics: thermodynamics, fluid mechanics, solid mechanics, dynamics, electricals and electronics, and materials science. As well as mechanical engineers, the text will be highly relevant to civil, automotive, aeronautical/aerospace and general engineering students. The text is written by an experienced team of first-year lecturers at the internationally renowned University of Nottingham. An accompanying website will provide resources for students and tutors including: worked examples of exam-style questions; multiple choice self-assessment and revision guides.
