  • Equilibrium Equations6:39

    Define equilibrium from Newton's first law, illustrate static equilibrium, and derive three force equations and three moment equations for a rigid body, with moment M = r × F.

  • Degree of Freedom12:16

    Identify six degrees of freedom for a 3d rigid body (translations and rotations) and three for a planar body, and study how constraints create reaction forces to arrest motion.

Description

This course is for students in Physics, Mechanical Engineering, Applied Mechanics and Civil Engineering. This course introduces many definitions like Structures, Mechanisms, Deformable body, Rigid Body, Body force, Boundary force, Method of Sections, Equilibrium equations, degrees of freedom, Trusses, Beams, Frames, Cables and Shafts. This short course prepares student for the further study of Mechanics of Solids, Strength of Materials or Design of structures.

Who this course is for:

  • Target students are Mechanical and Civil Engineering under graduate and graduate students, who are preparing for professional examinations like GATE, IES, PSU
  • Particularly the students who are adopting a self study route, and is in look out of courses which could quick review and summary of the topic Engineering Mechanics
  • It is also useful to students who are studying Strength of Materials or Mechanics of Solids course
