Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Text-Book of Mechanics, Vol. 3: Mechanics of Materials
IN every structure various members or parts are joined together and transmit forces.
When the members of a structure are so joined as to permit of relative motion the structure is called a machine, and the study of the forces transmitted necessitates the application of the principles of statics, kinematics, and kinetics.
