Purpose and Emphasis. Mechanics not only is the oldest branch of physics but was and still is the basis for all of theoretical physics.Quantum mechanics can hardly be understood, perhaps cannot even be formulated, without a good kno- edge of general mechanics.Field theories such as electrodynamics borrow their formal framework and many of their building principles from mechanics.In short, throughout the many modern developments of physics where one frequently turns back to the principles of classical mechanics its model character is felt.For this reason it is not surprising that the presentation of mechanics reflects to some - tent the development of modern physics and that today this classical branch of theoretical physics is taught rather differently than at the time of Arnold S- merfeld, in the 1920s, or even in the 1950s, when more emphasis was put on the theoryandtheapplicationsofpartial-differentialequations.Today,symmetriesand invariance principles, the structure of the space-time continuum, and the geom- rical structure of mechanics play an important role.The beginner should realize that mechanics is not primarily the art of describing block-and-tackles, collisions of billiard balls, constrained motions of the cylinder in a washing machine, or - cycle riding.; PDF; Scientific, Technical and Medical > Mechanical engineering & materials > Mechanical engineering, Springer Berlin Heidelberg<
