COURSE DESCRIPTION:
Mechanic: Statics is a course for mechanical engineering students, which includes all three parts of the mechanics: statics, kinematics and dynamics and studies general laws of mechanical motions of material bodies and mechanical interactions between them.
|
- Define fundamental concepts of statics including force, moment, and equilibrium.
- Apply vector algebra and free-body diagrams to represent and analyze force systems.
- Determine the resultant of concurrent, parallel, and general force systems in two and three dimensions.
- Solve equilibrium problems for particles and rigid bodies using Newton’s first law.
- Analyze structures such as trusses, frames, and machines using appropriate static methods.
- Calculate internal forces (normal force, shear force, bending moment) in structural members.
- Evaluate centroids and moments of inertia for composite areas.
- Demonstrate problem-solving and analytical thinking in applying statics principles to engineering problems.
