Develop a thorough understanding of the mechanics of materials - an essential area in mechanical, civil, and structural engineering -- with the analytical approach and problem-solving emphasis in the market-leading MECHANICS OF MATERIALS, 9E.

This book focuses on the analysis and design of structural members subjected to tension, compression, torsion, bending, and more.

Photographs and detailed diagrams demonstrate reactive and internal forces and resulting deformations.

Develop a thorough understanding of the mechanics of materials – an area essential for success in mechanical, civil and structural engineering -- with the analytical approach and problem-solving emphasis found in Goodno/Gere’s leading MECHANICS OF MATERIALS, Enhanced, SI, 9th Edition. This book focuses on the analysis and design of structural members subjected to tension, compression, torsion and bending. This ENHANCED EDITION guides you through a proven four-step problem-solving approach for systematically analyzing, dissecting and solving structure design problems and evaluating solutions. Memorable examples, helpful photographs and detailed diagrams and explanations demonstrate reactive and internal forces as well as resulting deformations. You gain the important foundation you need to pursue further study as you practice your skills and prepare for the FE exam.

Master two essential subjects in engineering mechanics -- statics and mechanics of materials -- with the rigorous, complete, and integrated treatment found in STATICS AND MECHANICS OF MATERIALS. This practical text helps you establish a strong foundation for further study in mechanics that is essential whether you continue in mechanical, structural, civil, biomedical, petroleum, nuclear, aeronautical, or aerospace engineering. The authors present numerous practical problems based on real structures, using state-of-the-art graphics, photographs, and detailed drawings of free body diagrams. All example problems follow a comprehensive, organized, and systematic Four-Step Problem-Solving Approach to help you strengthen important problem-solving skills and gain new insight into methods for dissecting and solving problems. This free website also contains nearly 200 FE-type review problems to help prepare you for success on the FE Exams.

La octava edicion de Mecanica de materiales continua su tradicion como el libro lider de esta materia. Gracias a su claridad y precision que le han caracterizado a lo largo de su trayectoria, favorece la comprension del lector, asi como sus habilidades de analisis y solucion de problemas. Entre los temas centrales que se estudian, se encuentran el analisis y diseno de los miembros estructurales sujetos a fuerzas de tension, compresion, torsion y flexion. El libro incluye mucho mas contenido del que puede impartirse en un solo curso, lo que brinda a los docentes la oportunidad de seleccionar los temas que desean abarcar, al tiempo que reservan el material restante como referencia valiosa para el estudiante.

Mecánica de materiales facilita la comprensión de esta asignatura básica en ingeniería pues incluye un repaso de estática y más de 1,400 problemas que pemiten poner en práctica los conocimientos adquiridos.
