| TMME19 | Mechanics, second course, 6 ECTS-points /Mekanik fk/ Advancement level: C | |
| Aim: To develop the knowledge of rigid body dynamics to a level where problems where the motion as a function of timie of a rigid body in three dimensions can be analyzed and solved using a computer.Prerequisites: Basic courses in Algebra, Calculus and Mechanics.Course organization: The course is given as a series of lectures and computer sessions. The examination is in the form of computer assignments, using Matlab and a commercial code for rigid-body dynamics.Course content: Coordinate transformations, Coriolis equation, moment of momentum, the inertia tensor, inertial systems, the equations of motion, the Euler angles, the Euler parameters, applications such as gyroscopic instruments.Course literature: Wiesel, W.E., Spaceflight Dynamics, 2nd edition, McGraw-Hill 1997 | ||
