All phenomena in nature are characterized by motion. Mechanics
deals with the objective laws of mechanical motion of bodies, the
simplest form of motion. In the study of a science of nature,
mathematics plays an important role. Mechanics is the first science
of nature which has been expressed in terms of mathematics, by
considering various mathematical models, associated to phenomena of
the surrounding nature. Thus, its development was influenced by the
use of a strong mathematical tool. As it was already seen in the
first two volumes of the present book, its guideline is precisely
the mathematical model of mechanics. The classical models which we
refer to are in fact models based on the Newtonian model of
mechanics, that is on its five principles, i.e.: the inertia, the
forces action, the action and reaction, the independence of the
forces action and the initial conditions principle, respectively.
Other models, e.g., the model of attraction forces between the
particles of a discrete mechanical system, are part of the
considered Newtonian model. Kepler's laws brilliantly verify this
model in case of velocities much smaller then the light velocity in
vacuum."
