Feature Summary

Features

Concept Questions are multiple choice problems that require few, if any, calculations are included. Students are encouraged to solve these problems using the principles and techniques discussed in the text and to use these principles to help develop their intuition.

Thoroughly Refreshed Problem Set in the tenth Edition. 70% of the problems are updated from the previous edition.

Well-Respected Sample Problems are a signature Beer and Johnston text feature that allow students to see important key problem types and with the solution laid out on a single page, organized to provide a potent model for student problem solving. Sample Problems serve the dual purpose of amplifying the text and demonstrating the type of neat and orderly work that students should cultivate in their own solutions.

Instructors Solutions Manual offers a clear type-set presentation and organization of problem solutions. In addition, Instructors are provided with assignment grids, designed so that instructors can assign different homework problems each semester for up to six semesters. Also included is a description of the material covered in each chapter and hints to help instructors assign appropriate homework problems.

Computer and Design Problems are offered at the end of each chapter. While the problems are generic they are designed to be easily solved using popular computational programs like Matlab®, Mathcad®, and Maple™. The computer problems focus on symbolic manipulation and plotting rather than programming.

ConnectEngineering provides a large selection of algorithmically generate exercises that feature hints, guided solutions, and more. Additionally, ConnectPlus offeers an integrated e-book.

A Careful, Step-By-Step Presentation. Presentation is followed in each lesson of each chapter, and every chapter starts with a real-life example and an outline previewing the chapter objectives and lessons. Each lesson is accompanied by sample problems and Solving Problems On Your Own boxes that prepare students for the problem sets. Each chapter finishes with a brief Review Problem set and an assortment of computer and design problems
