Carl S. Helrich

Analytical Mechanics (eBook, PDF)

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

Leaps directly into the variational approach, bypassing the Newtonian approach entirely, making this book stand out from its competitors

Applies a unique approach to teaching mechanics to advanced undergraduates with Lagrangian and Hamiltonian method that is far superior to that of Newton

Contains numerous exercises with concise solutions in the text and very detailed solutions in the manual
