✦ Synopsis

Shabana (mechanical and industrial engineering, University of Illinois) introduces multibody dynamics, with an emphasis on flexible body dynamics. Coverage progresses from reference kinematics to mechanics of deformable bodies, finite-element formulation, and the large deformation problem. There is an appendix on linear algebra. This third edition now includes important new developments relating to the problem of large deformations and numerical algorithms as applied to flexible multibody systems. The book's wealth of examples and practical applications will be useful to graduate students, researchers, and engineers.
