Michael Clifford, Kwing-So Choi, Arthur Jones, Edward Williams, Alan Howe, Thomas Hyde, Richard Brooks, Donald Giddings


An Introduction to Mechanical Engineering: Part 2 is an essential text for all second-year undergraduate students as well as those studying foundation degrees and HNDs. The text provides thorough coverage of the following core engineering topics:
- Fluid dynamics
- Thermodynamics
- Solid mechanics
- Control theory and techniques
- Mechanical power, loads and transmissions
- Structural vibration
As well as mechanical engineers, the text will be highly relevant to automotive, aeronautical/aerospace and general engineering students.
The material in this book has full electronic support on an accompanying website (www.hodderplus.co.uk/mechanicalengineering), which includes:
- worked solutions for exam-style questions
- multiple-choice self-assessment
- revision material
The text is written by an experienced team of lecturers at the internationally renowned University of Nottingham.

• First core mechanical engineering textbook approach at this level
• Cost effective for cash-strapped students
• Excellent author team from the University of Nottingham
• Electronic resources aimed at teachers and students
• Progression from first year book
