Potto Project – Engineering textbooks
October 24, 2007
The Potto Project was started by Dr. Genick Bar-Meir to produce and distribute high quality open textbooks. Books are made available in pdf, LaTeX, dvi and postscript under the GFDL. So far the main books are ‘Fundamentals of Compressible Flow’ and ‘Fundamentals of Die Casting Design’, both available from the downloads page.

I have really enjoyed this text book. I would like to be involved in the writing of Strength of Materials textbook or Mechanics of Materials textbook. I have actually started the work but was in need of style files and I intended to initially publish the book on the University of South Africa’s website where I am employed as an external lecturer for Strength of Materials.
Regards,
