Cambridge International Science Publishing., 2003. - 458p.
This book is intended for third year students in mathematics, physics and engineering
within the context of a first one-semester course in mechanics. Most of the text comes from
this level courses I taught at several universities and engineering schools.
The various chapters connect the notions of mechanics of first and second years with
the ones which are developed in more specialized subjects as quantum physics, continuum
mechanics, fluid-dynamics, special relativity, general relativity, cosmology, meteorology,
electromagnetism, stellar dynamics, celestial mechanics, applied differential geometry and so
on.
