Diehl Edward. The Engineering Dynamics Course Companion, Part 2: Rigid Bodies: Kinematics and Kinetics

Morgan & Claypool Publishers, 2021. — 239 p. — (Synthesis Lectures on Mechanical Engineering). — ISBN 978-1681739342.Engineering Dynamics Course Companion, Part 2: Rigid Bodies: Kinematics and Kinetics is a supplemental textbook intended to assist students, especially visual learners, in their approach to Sophomore-level Engineering Dynamics. This text covers particle kinematics and kinetics and emphasizes Newtonian Mechanics "Problem Solving Skills" in an accessible and fun format, organized to coincide with the first half of a semester schedule many instructors choose, and supplied with numerous example problems. While this book addresses Rigid Body Dynamics, a separate book (Part 1) is available that covers Particle Dynamics.
