Statics and Rotational Dynamics of Composite Beams
A helicopter, with its capability of vertical take-off and landing, is a crucial means of aerial transportation. In fire-fighting rescue operations and missions for helping survivors of an earthquake or an avalanche, helicopters have played vital roles. The expansion of the domain of the application of helicopters, however, faces a few serious constraints; among them is the relatively poor r…

Statics-Learning from Engineering Examples
Mathematical and physical theories cannot be used directly to solve real-life problems because models (theories) take into account only the most important physical quantities and cannot account for each particular characteristic of the given problem. The real-life engineering problems usually deal with objects of complicated geometrical configuration that cannot be easily modeled. Thus, si…
