Mathematical Methods for Mechanics A Handbook with MATLAB Experiments / by Eckart W. Gekeler.

The interaction between mathematics and mechanics is a never ending source of new developments. Today, challenging problems like space flight, gyroscope motions and tidal currents, can be studied on a laptop, feats that people still in the 1950’s dreamed of accomplishing. The present textbook addres...
