Excerpt from Principles of the Mechanics of Machinery and Engineering, Vol. 2 of 2: Applied Mechanics
IN writing this, the second volume, I have adhered as closely as possible to my views of what the work should be, as explained in the preface to the first volume.
I am aware that these views are not adopted by all who are capable of judging in the matter, and that a more general and mathematical treatment of the subject would have been preferred by many. But I have now long experience in teaching to fall back upon, and am thereby convinced, that the comparatively elementary style adopted as it can be followed by those who have not made extensive mathematical acquirements, will more surely lead to the introduction of applications of Mechanical Science in the routine practice of engineers, than the more general methods of treating these subjects have done.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book deals with the mechanical theory of machinery and engineering, particularly the application of mechanics in construction. It examines the behaviour of semi-fluid masses, the pressure of earth, and resistance offered by bodies when sliding against one another. Additionally, the book explores the theory of arches, establishing optimum construction techniques. Throughout the text, the author emphasises the importance of calculating and accounting for the influence of shifting and unbalanced forces to prevent structural failure. Engineers, architects, and scholars interested in civil engineering, particularly in the context of building, will find the insights presented in this book invaluable in their practice and research.
