Formulas for Dynamic Analysis

By Ronald Huston, C Q Liu Copyright 2001

    "Explains and summarizes the fundamental derivations, basic and advanced concepts, and equations central to the field of dynamics. Chapters stand as self-study guides-containing tables, summaries of relevant equations, cross references, and illustrative examples. Utilizes Kane's equations and associated methods for the study of large and complex multibody systems."

    Vector analysis; kinematics of particles; particle kinetics; particle dynamics; kinematics of bodies; additional topics/formulas in kinematics of bodies; mass distribution and inertia; rigid body kinetics; rigid body dynamics; rigid problems/systems; multibody systems; multibody kinematics; multibody kinematics and dynamics.
