CIDE DICTIONARY
mechanics, n. [Cf. F. mécanique.].
That science, or branch of applied mathematics, which treats of the action of forces on bodies. [1913 Webster]
" That part of mechanics which considers the action of forces in producing rest or equilibrium is called statics ; that which relates to such action in producing motion is called dynamics . The term mechanics includes the action of forces on all bodies, whether solid, liquid, or gaseous. It is sometimes, however, and formerly was often, used distinctively of solid bodies only: The mechanics of liquid bodies is called also hydrostatics , or hydrodynamics , according as the laws of rest or of motion are considered. The mechanics of gaseous bodies is called also pneumatics . The mechanics of fluids in motion, with special reference to the methods of obtaining from them useful results, constitutes hydraulics ."
[1913 Webster]
