Download or read book A Kinematics and Kinetics Primer written by John E. Hurtado and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2014-05-14 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A complete set of lecture notes for a one-semester, junior-level dynamics course. Broadly speaking, the content covers point mass dynamics, rigid body dynamics, gyroscopic motions, introductory structural dynamics, Galerkin's approximation to flexible body modeling, and an introduction to Lagrangian dynamics. The material is presented in a novel and unique 1-page, 1-topic format. The principles are presented in a rigorous manner and careful attention is paid to establish a consistent and unambiguous notation.
