Publisher's Synopsis
""A Treatise On The Application Of Generalized Coordinates To The Kinetics Of A Material System"" is a scientific book written by H.W. Watson and published in 1879. The book explores the use of generalized coordinates in analyzing the kinetics of material systems. It discusses the principles and equations of motion, and how they can be applied to different types of systems, including rigid bodies, fluids, and gases. The book also covers the concept of virtual work and how it can be used to derive the equations of motion. This book is a valuable resource for students and researchers in the fields of mechanics, physics, and engineering, as it provides a detailed and comprehensive overview of the application of generalized coordinates in the study of material systems.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
