About the course
Aim
To give the student familarity with the fundamental laws of classical mechanics and the skill to independently apply these laws to engineering problems. After the course, the student should be able to:
- explain the properties of a force.
- define basic concepts of mechanics such as equilibrium, velocity,acceleration, angular velocity, angular acceleration, momentum, angular momentum, moment of inertia, work, energy.
- write down expressions for and compute the above quantities for engineering problems.
- draw free body diagrams, formulate kinematical relations, apply Euler's laws and thereby find the ordinary differential equations governing the motion of a body.
Content
Newton's laws of motion. Newtons law of gravitation. Velocity and acceleration in cartesian and plane polar coordinates. Linear oscillations with one degree of freedom. Momentum and moment of momentum. Introduction to the concept of impulse. The moment law for a particle. Work. Kinetic energy. The potentials of a spring and a parallell force field. Coriolis' equation. Kinematic relations for a rigid body. The moment of momentum for a rigid body. The inertia matrix. Eulers' equations of motion for a rigid body. plane parallell motion. Rolling.
