TMME17 | Engineering Mechanics, ECTS-points /MEKANIK Ii/ Advancement level: B | |
Aim: To familiarize the student with the basic laws of classical mechanics and provide the skills necessary to apply the laws to concrete mechanical problems independently.Prerequisites: Upper secondary school mathematics and physics, Algebra, Analysis.Supplementary courses: Mechanics of Materials, Mechanical Heat And Flow Theory, Mechanical Components, Automatic Engineering, Industrial Engineering. Course organization: The course is divided into two sections; part 1 is given in the form of lectures and classes, while part 2 is in the form of large seminars. Course content: Part 1. Statics: two and three dimensional force systems, momentum vectors, reduction of force systems, force equilibrium and momentum equilibrium, center of gravity, Coulombâs law of friction. Particle dynamics: Newtonâs laws of motion, gravity, velocity and acceleration in cartesian, polar and natural coordinates, work and energy, impulse and momentum, impact. Part 2: Linear vibrations. Rigid body dynamics in plane: Velocity and acceleration with absolute and relative motion, instantaneous center, Eulerâs equations of motion, work and energy, impulse and momentum, moment of impulse and moment of momentum.
