Good book abaut classical mechanics?

AI Thread Summary
A new forum member seeks recommendations for books on classical mechanics, specifically looking for resources that cover kinematics, statics, dynamics, and fluids, with a focus on clear explanations and problem-solving practice. Suggestions include Greiner's Classical Mechanics for detailed mathematical rigor, though it may not be suitable for beginners. Young and Freedman's "University Physics" is recommended for its introductory approach, while French's "Newtonian Mechanics" offers a balance between basic and advanced concepts. Klepner's work is also mentioned as a solid choice. Additionally, I.E. Irodov's book is noted for its quality in mechanics problems, although it may be less accessible for newcomers.

hi
im new to this forum, i yust registered, and i think is great forum, the best and wery helpfull

im on a physics and informatics colledge, i need to pass classical mechanics (i have some dificulties with it), so i have a question does somebody know some good book about classical mechanics (with kinematics, statics, dinamics, fluids)(i' d prefear theat goes from bottom and theat is wery good in explaining)?

thx

If you want incredibly excrutiating mathematical detail go for Greiners classical mechanics. It is dead boring though and probably not very good as a introduction.

If you want a good introduction I liked the chapters for mechanics in "university physics" by Young and Freedman.
 
Hey, i am new to this forum.i don't know how to continue with things here.pls someone suggests me how to use this forum in a better way.
i want a good book on classical mechanics containing good numerical problem .i want to practice from that.please smeone suggest some good books,thanx.

The book is fascinating. If your education includes a typical math degree curriculum, with Lebesgue integration, functional analysis, etc, it teaches QFT with only a passing acquaintance of ordinary QM you would get at HS. However, I would read Lenny Susskind's book on QM first. Purchased a copy straight away, but it will not arrive until the end of December; however, Scribd has a PDF I am now studying. The first part introduces distribution theory (and other related concepts), which...
I've gone through the Standard turbulence textbooks such as Pope's Turbulent Flows and Wilcox' Turbulent modelling for CFD which mostly Covers RANS and the closure models. I want to jump more into DNS but most of the work i've been able to come across is too "practical" and not much explanation of the theory behind it. I wonder if there is a book that takes a theoretical approach to Turbulence starting from the full Navier Stokes Equations and developing from there, instead of jumping from...
