Engineering Dynamics

Catalog description

2 Lecture Hour(s) 0 Lab Hour(s) This course covers the basic principles of classical mechanics applied to the motion of particles, systems of particles, and rigid bodies; kinematics; rectilinear and curvilinear motions; kinetics: force, mass, and acceleration; energy and momentum principles. Topics include coordinate systems, work-energy, impulse-momentum, and selected topics from three-dimensional rigid bodies. The course also includes the use of computational software to solve numerical problems.
