Klassische Mechanik

The book covers classical point mechanics and the mechanics of rigid bodies in Newtonian, Lagrangian and Hamiltonian formulations, as well as vibrational mechanics, wave theory and relativistic mechanics. The most important principles of mechanics are not only introduced, but are applied in practice with numerous examples that go beyond standard tasks. This allows the reader to get to know the variety of mechanics and to practice the mathematical methods that are required in advanced courses. Interactive MATLAB applications and photorealistic animations of mechanical problems also illustrate more complicated issues. From reviews of previous editions: 'Also the mixing of the material with illustrative examples and the easy to read text will keep this edition of Classical Mechanics in the bestseller lists.
