Foundations of Mechanical Engineering

This book provides a unified approach to the teaching of the basic mechanical engineering disciplines of mechanics, mechanics of solids and thermofluid mechanics for students at foundation and first year levels. The text uses copious worked examples to illustrate the correct approach to problem-solving and to provide outline solutions for all the 'end of chapter' problems, so that students can check their own working. The mathematical content has been minimised and where necessary the fundamentals have been introduced through use of diagrams and graphic representations.Keith Sherwin Anthony Johnson is the author of 'Foundations of Mechanical Engineering', published 1996 under ISBN 9780412616006 and ISBN 0412616009.
