Learning outcomes
|
The course builds on theoretical knowledge acquired within the subject "Physics 1", which is further extended towards practical abilities in solving technical problems in mechanics of rigid bodies. The students learn to analyze simple mechanical systems, draw the free-body diagram and to assemble and solve the equilibrium equations or equations of motion. The course is divided into three sections - statics, kinematics and dynamics. The presentation of the theory is complemented by solved example problems from engineering practice.
Students will acquire the basic knowledge of the technical mechanics of the rigid body. Special focus is given to free body diagrams and their application in problems of statics and dynamics. Concerning statics, the student is able to write down the equations of equilibrium of bodies and systems in staticaly definite cases. Concering kinematics, the student is able to transform different descriptions of motion. Concerning dynamics, the student is able to write down equations of motin for basic cases of particle and rigid body motion.
