Statics

Catalog description

A study of 2D and 3D force systems, equilibrium, structures, distributed forces, shear and bending moment diagrams, friction, and area moments of inertia. Analysis of the static equilibrium of rigid bodies and fluids in static conditions. Topics include free-body diagram, concentrated forces, distributed forces, forces due to friction, and inertia forces, as well as their application to the analysis of machines, structures and systems.
