Mechanics with applications 2

 7.5 ECTS credits
Instruction is in the form of lectures and calculation exercises including experimental components.

Coordinate systems: normal and tangential coordinates
Moment of inertia for individual rigid bodies and systems of rigid bodies. Analysis of absolute and relative motion, kinematic constraints.
Particles and rigid bodies dynamics: translational motion, rotation of rigid body around fix axis, general plane motion of a rigid body, work, energy, momentum, impulse, angular momentum, impulse momentum, conservation laws, three-dimensional motion.
Among applications are body motion in relation to inelastic collision; non-conservative mechanical systems motion; reciprocal interaction of mechanical elements.
