Synopsis
For courses in Dynamics. State-of-the-art in both perspective and approach, this text “puts the motion back into the presentation of dynamics.” Drawing on the power and widespread use of modern computational tools ― e.g., MathCAD, MATLAB, Mathematica, and Maple ― it is written from the point of view that the systems of interest are in motion and focuses on solving the dynamics problems for general time and plotting and visualizing the response.
