This textbook presents for the first time in one text the concepts and processes covered in statics and mechanics of materials curricula following a systematic, topically integrated approach. Since the turn of the millennium, it has become common in engineering schools to combine the traditional undergraduate offerings in rigid-body statics (usually called statics) and deformable body mechanics (known traditionally as strength of materials or, more recently, mechanics of materials) into a single, introductory course in solid mechanics. Many textbooks for the new course sequentially meld pieces of existing, discrete books sometimes, but not always, acknowledging the origin into two halves covering Statics and Mechanics of Materials. In this volume, Professors Lubliner and Papadopoulos methodically combine the essentials of statics and mechanics of materials, illustrating the relationship of concepts throughout, into one "integrated" text.
