Statics and Dynamics (ENGR 210), Spring 2006

Location and Time:

Lecture Hall , Room 2, Tuesdays and Thursdays, 3:00pm - 4:15pm

Course Overview:

This course provides the fundamental principles and tools for the analysis of structures. It includes stationary structures (statics) and structures in motion (dynamics). Topics covered include General principles and fundamental concepts of mechanics of rigid bodies; Units of measurements, Force vector analysis and their use, including vector operations; Equilibrium of particles and rigid bodies; Resultants of a system of forces; Dry friction; Center of gravity and centroid; Moments of inertia, including the parallel axis theorem and radius of gyration. Kinematics and kinetics of a particle; Work and energy.

Course Objectives:

To develop an understanding of the basic principles governing the conditions of rest and motion of particles and rigid bodies subjected to the action of forces; to develop the ability to analyse and solve problems in a simple and logical manner.
