This is a textbook on models and modeling in mechanics. It
introduces a new unifying approach to applied mechanics: through
the concept of the open scheme, a step-by-step approach to modeling
evolves. The unifying approach enables a very large scope on
relatively few pages: the book treats theories of mass points and
rigid bodies, continuum models of solids and fluids, as well as
traditional engineering mechanics of beams, cables, pipe flow and
wave propagation. Models of Mechanics complements existing books
that deal with continuum mechanics. In contrast to such books it
gives a setting that is broad enough to encompass also the
mechanics of mass points, and theories of beams and other
intrinsically one-dimensional bodies. An obtained knowledge of the
unifying approach can be a base for advanced studies of fluid and
solid mechanics, as well as specializations in mechatronics,
control and structural optimization.
