Mechanics is a branch of the physical sciences which studies the state of rest or motion of bodies under the effect of forces.In general，it can be subdivided into three branches：rigid-body mechanics，deformable-body mechanics，and fluid mechanics.
As far as a rigid body is concerned，it's a combination of a large number of particles in which all the particles remain at a fixed distance from one another，both before and after applying a load.In other words，if an object doesn't deform when it's subjected to a loading system，then we can take it as a rigid body.From this definition we can know rigid body is an idealization，in fact there is no rigid body in the universe.But in most cases the actual deformations occurring in structures，machines，mechanisms，and the like are relatively small，so these deformations can be neglected and the rigid-body assumption becomes reasonable.
Rigid-body mechanics is very important since it's a basic requirement for further study，and it has three parts：statics，kinematics and kinetics.Statics mainly deals with equilibrium of objects that are subjected to the action of forces，kinematics studies the geometrical properties of the motion but the reason is not considered，while kinetics establishes relationship between force and motion.In this book，we will learn the first part of rigid-body mechanics and deformable-body mechanics which is usually known as mechanics of materials.
