Ask HN: Engineering Statics and Dynamics book recommendation

6•areoform•14h ago
Hey HN, I'm trying to learn how to analyze static structures for a project I'm building! I'd love a good grounded introduction book for engineering statics and dynamics! As well as any intermediate books that you might recommend!

The best book I've found so far is, Engineering Statics https://open.umn.edu/opentextbooks/textbooks/engineering-statics-open-and-interactive

Bonus points if the book includes sections on simulation!

Thanks!
