Symbolic solutions are obtained, together with the types of solutions covered in other texts, so that students can see the advantages of this new approach.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis innovative text is an extension of second-generation \u003ci\u003evector Statics\u003c\/i\u003e courses to a new, third-generation \u003ci\u003ematrix-vector Statics\u003c\/i\u003e course, a course that addresses deformable as well as rigid bodies and employs MATLAB®.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMATLAB® is used as a “calculator” whose built-in functions are used to solve statics problems. This text uses vectors and matrices to solve both statically determinate rigid body problems and statically indeterminate problems for deformable bodies.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe inclusion of statically indeterminate problems is unique to this text. It is made possible by using symbolic algebra and a new, simplified vector-matrix formulation that combines the equations of equilibrium, the homogeneous solutions to those equations, and a description of the flexibilities found in the deformable elements of a structure to solve directly for the unknown forces\/moments.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Taylor \u0026 Francis","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45584551674094,"sku":"9781032437002","price":164.9,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/bookland.com.au\/products\/engineering-statics-with-matlab-r-hardback","provider":"Book Land AU","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
