Applied Dynamics

Focusing on the application of analytical mechanics, this book explores the essential principles of applied dynamics in various engineering fields, including mechanical, automotive, aerospace, and biomechanics. It emphasizes D'Alembert's principle within the Lagrangian framework, providing a consistent treatment of multibody, finite element, and continuous systems. Students gain a deeper understanding of dynamical phenomena, while engineers can easily verify results through models of varying complexity for vibration and stress analysis, enhancing both learning and practical application.
