A good understanding of the fundamental concepts of applied mechanics should be a characteristic of many engineers, even at the undergraduate level. However, too often lot of engineers feel uncomfortable when dealing with classical mechanics. Perhaps, the way mechanics is usually presented does not provide a truly in-depth understanding of the subject. An incredible example of a very popular, though incorrect statement is that "the resultant inertial force is applied at the center of mass". This is not true. The goal of this book is to provide a concise, yet thorough, explanation of several fundamental concepts of applied mechanics, especially for mechanical engineering. Each topic is addressed with a fresh approach, step by step, with color illustrations. What seems difficult at first can become elementary after adequate reflection, transforming the initial discomfort into gratification and making studying even fun.
