A Treatise On Analytical Statics With Numerous Examples PDF Download

Excerpt from A Treatise on Analytical Statics: With Numerous Examples In this work will be found all the Propositions which usually appear in treatises on Theoretical Statics. To the different Chapters Examples are appended, which have been principally selected from the University and College Examination Papers; these will furnish ample exercise in the application of the principles of the subject Some of the Examples in the earlier Chapters assume results which are obtained at a later part of the book; the student who has no previous acquaintance with the subject may therefore, on his first perusal of the book, omit the more difficult Examples of the first six Chapters. The subject besides being valuable for its own sake is important as the first, according to the usual order of study, which involves the application of the higher parts of pure mathematics to physics. Thus, for instance, the Chapters on the Centre of Gravity and on Attraction, besides their direct use in establishing interesting results in Mechanics, are indirectly of great advantage by illustrating the processes of the Integral Calculus, and special attention has been paid to this circumstance by the discussion of numerous examples. In the fourth edition the work has been revised, and some additions have been made which it is hoped will increase its utility.
