Engineering Book on Dynamics (Mechanical systems)

AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on finding a book focused on mechanical systems that emphasizes problem-solving and explanations rather than theoretical background. The individual seeks resources that cover energy and impulse methods, specifically looking for material that includes Lagrangian Mechanics with multiple degrees of freedom. Recommendations include exploring texts on classical mechanics and engineering dynamics to build a solid understanding of these concepts. The conversation highlights the importance of practical problem sets in learning mechanical systems.

I'm looking for a book that has problems and explanations (not necessarily background theory) about mechanical systems. Consider the picture below for reference.

The idea is I want to get a hold of energy and impulse methods for solving problems like this, eventually the book would have a chapter of Lagrangian Mechanics with two or more degrees of freedom. Something of the sort?

I understand the topic is broad, but at least a collection of books that you would recommend on such problems? I would really like to have a solid grasp on these concepts.

Thread 'Ashcroft and Mermin: revised edition'

Hi, I have notice that Ashcroft, Mermin and Wei worked at a revised edition of the original solid state physics book (here). The book, however, seems to be never available. I have also read that the reason is related to some disputes related to copyright. Do you have any further information about it? Did you have the opportunity to get your hands on this revised edition? I am really curious about it, also considering that I am planning to buy the book in the near future... Thanks!

Thread 'How is Jackson’s Electrodynamics taught during undergraduate?'

I’ve heard that in some countries (for example, Argentina), the curriculum is structured differently from the typical American program. In the U.S., students usually take a general physics course first, then move on to a textbook like Griffiths, and only encounter Jackson at the graduate level. In contrast, in those countries students go through a general physics course (such as Resnick-Halliday) and then proceed directly to Jackson. If the slower, more gradual approach is considered...
