| 520 | # | # | |a The theory of mechanics is the basis for much of a mathematics degree course. This book provides an introduction to all the important topics which should be covered in such a course, and the text is supplemented by exercises to test and encourage comprehension. Beginning with a discussion of mathematical modelling and other techniques required when investigating the concepts of mechanics, the author goes on to a treatment of classical mechanics and simple harmonic motion. Particle motion and the statics and mechanics of a rigid body are all developed slowly, together with the principles of fluid mechanics. As well as studying the Newtonian approach to gravitation, there is a particularly useful introduction to the theory of special relativity. The book ends with a consideration of Newtonian cosmology and some possible models of the universe. |
