CIVE 261 - Engineering Mechanics-Dynamics

  • 3 credits
View available sections

Dynamics is a course in engineering mechanics which is concerned with the motion of bodies under the action of forces. The study of dynamics has numerous engineering applications; the mechanical design of an automobile or bicycle, the path of a projectile, or even the design of highways. It will also help you interpret the movement of all moving objects we encounter in our daily lives. We will cover kinematics and kinetics of both particles and rigid bodies, including the concepts of work-energy and impulse-momentum; computer applications; vector notation.
