Research and Markets: Advanced Dynamics: Covering Rigid Body, Multibody, and Aerospace Applications

DUBLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/78a22b/advanced_dynamics) has announced the addition of John Wiley and Sons Ltd's new book "Advanced Dynamics: Rigid Body, Multibody, and Aerospace Applications" to their offering.

“Advanced Dynamics: Rigid Body, Multibody, and Aerospace Applications”

This book bridges the gap between rigid body, multibody, and spacecraft dynamics for graduate students and specialists in mechanical and aerospace engineering. The engineers and graduate students who read this book will be able to apply their knowledge to a wide range of applications across different engineering disciplines.

The book begins with a review on coordinate systems and particle dynamics which will teach coordinate frames. The transformation and rotation theory along with the differentiation theory in different coordinate frames will provides the required background to learn the rigid body dynamics based on Newton-Euler principles. Applications to this coverage can be found in vehicle dynamics, spacecraft dynamics, aircraft dynamics, robot dynamics, and multibody dynamics, each in a chapter.

The Newton equations of motion will be transformed to Lagrange equation as a bridge to analytical dynamics. The methods of Lagrange and Hamilton will be applied on rigid body dynamics. Finally through the coverage of special applications this text provides understanding of advanced systems without restricting itself to a particular discipline. The author will provide a detailed solutions manual and powerpoint slides as ancillaries to this book.

Key Topics Covered:

• - Part I Fundamentals.
• Fundamentals of Kinematics.
• Fundamentals of Dynamics.
• - Part II Geometric Kinematics.
• Coordinate Systems.
• Rotation Kinematics.
• Orientation Kinematics.
• Motion Kinematics.
