Course Objective

Defining the basic concepts in dynamics, providing the required capabilities to use the principles of Newtonian mechanics and mathematical principles to the application of engineering systems in motion, constructing mathematical models of engineering problems involving rigid bodies under the action of forces and developing a systematic, logical and sequential approach for the solution, rational interpretation of dynamic events by considering the solution of the model.

Learning Outcomes of the Course Unit

1   To identify the basic physical and mathematical concepts and Newton s laws in dynamics.
2   To interpret the kinematics related to the motion of a particle in different coordinate systems.
3   To solve problems concerning the relative motion of particles.
4   To relate the different methods associated with kinetics of particles to solutions of problems.
5   To evaluate the planar kinematics of rigid bodies by using translating and rotating coordinate axes.
6   Using the information gained by throughout the study of the motion of particles and rigid bodies, to identify solutions about the planar kinetics of rigid bodies.
