Ebook

This book is a written aid to the lectures on Theoretical Mechanics, being given to the international students of Mechanical Engineering at the Faculty of Automotive and Construction Machinery Engineering of the Warsaw University of Technology. The main objective of the book is to provide the undergraduate students with the necessary knowledge and skills to solve mechanical problems that can occur in their engineering job, or earlier – during studies – within semester or diplome projects.
