Websites/books for 'Engineering Mechanics'.

AI Thread Summary
Recommended resources for studying Engineering Mechanics include foundational topics such as coplanar forces, equilibrium, forces in space, friction, and principles of virtual work. In dynamics, key areas of focus are kinematics of particles and rigid bodies, as well as kinetics. Timoshenko and Young's works are noted for their relevance, particularly in statics rather than statistics. Students are seeking additional websites and books to enhance their understanding of these concepts. Comprehensive resources can significantly aid in mastering the subject matter for first-year engineering courses.

Thread 'Query on Isentropic relationships (such as PV^gamma = constant)'

Hi all, I have a question. So from the derivation of the Isentropic process relationship PV^gamma = constant, there is a step dW = PdV, which can only be said for quasi-equilibrium (or reversible) processes. As such I believe PV^gamma = constant (and the family of equations) should not be applicable to just adiabatic processes? Ie, it should be applicable only for adiabatic + reversible = isentropic processes? However, I've seen couple of online notes/books, and...

Thread 'Dry sump pump issue'

I have an engine that uses a dry sump oiling system. The oil collection pan has three AN fittings to use for scavenging. Two of the fittings are approximately on the same level, the third is about 1/2 to 3/4 inch higher than the other two. The system ran for years with no problem using a three stage pump (one pressure and two scavenge stages). The two scavenge stages were connected at times to any two of the three AN fittings on the tank. Recently I tried an upgrade to a four stage pump...
