AEES 2010 — - Applied Engineering Mechanics
Students are introduced to basic concepts in engineering mechanics: statics, dynamics, and the strength of materials, with a focus on technical application of the fundamentals to mechanical design. Newton’s Laws are studied with emphasis on equilibrium and motion. Realistic problems are analyzed through the use of vector mechanics. Kinematic and kinetics are investigated to a level sufficient enough for students to follow and develop basic analysis of mechanisms and machines. Stress levels and strain are covered allowing for determination of acceptable analysis and design of mechanical systems. Lecture: 2 hours, Lab: 2 hours Prerequisite(s): MATH 1179 and MATH 1181 and PHYS 1000
