Advanced dynamics forms the foundation of physical science and is recognized as an important subject of study for all engineering students and professionals in competitive university programmes and throughout the industry. This textbook explains the fundamental laws of motion and goes on to cover topics including gyroscopic effect, missile trajectories, interplanetary mission, multistage rockets and use of numerical methods. In addition, theories such as the rotation operator are developed. The book balances theory and application and relates all subjects to practical problems and real-world situations and recent advances affecting everyday life. The practical applications help the reader remember key theories and uses, and an appreciation that the subject matter is one with ongoing problems which need new solutions. In addition to student-use, the book is also written for engineers who want to update their knowledge and keep abreast of changes in the field, but who cannot attend formal classes. A thorough understanding of the foundation of mechanical engineering is necessary to read and assimilate scholarly papers and leading articles in journals and peer-reviewed magazines.
