Excerpt from A Treatise on Dynamics: With Examples and Exercises

The proofs of the first two - thirds of the book have been read with great care by our colleague, Dr. R. A. Houstoun, and Dr. Pinkerton, Of Edinburgh, has kindly read the chapter on Gyrostats. We Offer our thanks to these gentle men, and also to the officials and workmen of the Glasgow University Press for their care and attention throughout the printing of the book.

Excerpt from A Treatise on Dynamics: With Examples and Exercises

This book has been written to provide a discussion of higher dynamics suitable for students of engineering, physics, or astronomy. To a large extent the examples and exercises have been drawn from practical affairs, and have been chosen more for the sake of illustration of physical principles than for their mathematical interest. With hardly an exception, the exercises given at the end of each chapter have been carefully verified, and it is hoped that but few of them are in error. A large number of examples have been worked out in the various chapters, where practical illustration seemed to be required.

A considerable space is devoted to gyro-stats and gyro-static action, and we have used throughout this chapter, and elsewhere, the method set forth in � 9 of calculating rates of change of directed quantities for a moving system. This method of proceeding occurred to one of us about fifteen years ago [see Gray's Physics, Vol. I ], and we have found it very useful in our teaching, as enabling solutions of difficult problems of rotational motion to be readily built up from first principles.
