Statics, in physics, the subdivision of mechanics that is concerned with the forces that act on bodies at rest under equilibrium conditions. Its foundations were laid more than 2,200 years ago by the ancient Greek mathematician Archimedes and others while studying the force-amplifying properties of simple machines such as the lever and the axle. This is a very good text on the subject matter, Engineering Mechanics: Statics (12th Edition) Hardcover by Russell C. Hibbeler is the best text on the subject or one of the best I have used. I have other books on this subject for the student of physics and Engineering.

Statics Problems
Informally, statics is the study of forces without motion. More formally, statics is the branch of mechanics that deals with forces in the absence of changes in motion. In contrast, dynamics is the study of forces and motion; or more formally, the branch of mechanics that deals with the effect that forces have on the motion of objects. Welcome to Stratics Central. It's been a while, but it's back and hopefully, it will be better than ever. We're going to do our best to bring you new content on a regular basis, and with your help carry. The Black Gate Walkthrough. Statics Force Analysis for Cylinder Supported by Two Rollers Equation and Calculator Vector Mechanics for Engineers, Statics and Dynamics The mechanics of rigid bodies is subdivided into statics and dynamics, the former dealing with bodies at rest, the latter with bodies in motion.
