PROGRAM OVERVIEW

Description

Engineering mechanics is the study of forces that act on bodies and the resultant motion that those bodies experience. Engineering mechanics subject involves the application of the principles of mechanics to solve real-time engineering problems.

            Introduces some basic principles of engineering mechanics in as simple a manner as possible. The course covers a basic introduction to both statics and dynamics. Emphasis is placed upon the gaining of real understanding of the laws and principles of mechanics.

What will you learn?

By the end of the course you will be able to:

Write down equilibrium conditions of structural elements and units of machines and mechanisms.

Perform the substitution of one system of forces that acts upon the structural elements and components of mechanisms with another equivalent one.

Create 2D and 3D diagrams of equilibrium in the standard engineering objects.

Choose appropriate mathematical models for calculating geometric parameters and force loads in the problems related to equilibrium of the engineering structures.

Apply combinations of mathematical operations according to the obtained mathematical models, when creating and solving equations describing equilibrium of the engineering structures.

Prerequisites

Prerequisites for engineering mechanics are good knowledge in physics, calculus, and linear Algebra.
