Rigid Body Kinematics Av Joaquim A. (Universitat Politecnica De Catalunya Barcelona) Batlle, Ana (Universitat Politecnica De Catalunya Barcelona) Barj

Master the conceptual, theoretical and practical aspects of kinematics with this exhaustive text, which provides a rigorous analysis and description of general motion in mechanical systems, with numerous examples from spinning tops to wheel ground-vehicles. Over 400 figures illustrate the main ideas and provide a geometrical interpretation and a deeper understanding of concepts, and exercises and problems throughout the text provide additional hands-on practice. Ideal for students taking courses on rigid body kinematics, and an invaluable reference for researchers.
