Mechanics with applications 1
7.5 ECTS creditsInstruction is in the form of lectures and calculation exercises.
Statics: Forces and force systems in two and three dimensions, isolation of mechanical systems, Newton's first and third law, equilibrium in two and three dimensions, potential energy and stability.
Kinematics: Rectilinear and plane motion, constraints.
Dynamics: Newton's second law applied to rectilinear and curvilinear motion, work and energy, momentum and impulse, angular momentum.
