A major highlight of Norton's work is its emphasis on computer-aided engineering. The text historically integrates proprietary software and programming paradigms, including:

Worked example (concise)

Ensuring the center of mass lies on the axis of rotation.

Please let me know if you want me to continue with the rest of the text.

The first half of the book focuses on kinematics—calculating position, velocity, and acceleration without regard to the forces causing the motion.
