Many capable students and early-career professionals can pass a course yet hesitate in front of an
unfamiliar problem: the givens are unlabeled, the units are mixed, the right model is not obvious, and there
is no answer key. The gap is rarely intelligence. It is the absence of a repeatable method and a connected
view of the fundamentals.
This handbook is built around doing. Every chapter states learning objectives, develops the theory from first
principles, and then puts it to work through worked examples that define the system, list givens and
unknowns, state assumptions, track units line by line, and finish with a reasonableness check. Practice
problems extend each chapter, and later chapters deliberately reuse earlier tools so the methods become
habits.
Working through this book will help you:
• Apply a general problem-solving procedure you can trust on problems you have never seen before.
• Convert units and test dimensional homogeneity so calculation errors surface before they become
decisions.
• Analyze forces, motion, stress, deflection, and buckling in structures and machines.
• Trace energy through thermodynamic cycles, pipe and duct flow, and conduction, convection, and
radiation.
• Solve direct-current and alternating-current networks, size motors, and interpret three-phase power.
• Select sensors, condition and sample signals, and reason about feedback, stability, and system
response.
• Evaluate reliability, safety margins, tolerances, and the economics of engineering alternatives.
The coverage runs from quantities and mathematics through modeling and numerical methods, mechanics,
materials, thermal-fluid sciences, electrical and electronic systems, instrumentation and control, and design,
ending with integrated case-style analysis that crosses domains the way real projects do. Appendices supply
mathematical references, property tables, conversion factors, and review checklists; a symbol list, glossary,
and index keep everything findable.
It suits students in any engineering or engineering technology program, apprentices and technicians
formalizing their knowledge, career changers entering technical work, and professionals returning to
fundamentals they have not touched in years.
Open the book, work the examples, and build the kind of problem-solving discipline that carries from the
first unit conversion to a complete multidisciplinary design.

Information regarding the right of withdrawal
Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.
To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back, or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.
You shall send back the goods or hand them over to California Books, Fort Wayne, Indiana, U.S.A., without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.
Exceptions to the right of withdrawal
The right of withdrawal does not apply to:
- The delivery of newspapers, journals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts; and
- The supply of digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium (e.g. on a CD or DVD) if you accepted when you placed your order that we could start to deliver it, and that you could not withdraw once delivery had started.
