Study GET 207 the smart way
Sage already knows this exact syllabus — ask it anything about Applied Mechanics, generate practice questions in your exam's format, and get a cram sheet that works offline.
What you'll be able to do (official learning outcomes)
Students will acquire the ability to:
explain the fundamental principles of applied mechanics, particularly equilibrium analysis, friction, kinematics and momentum
identify, formulate, and solve complex engineering problems by applying principles of engineering, science, mathematics and applied mechanics
synthesize Newtonian Physics with static analysis to determine the complete load impact (net forces, shears, torques, and bending moments) on all components (members and joints) of a given structure with a load;
apply engineering design principles to produce solutions that meet specified needs with consideration of public health, safety, and welfare, as well as global, cultural, social, environmental, and economic factors.
Course contents
Forces, moments, couples. Equilibrium of simple structures and machine parts. Friction. First and second moments of area; centroids. Kinematics of particles and rigid bodies in plane motion. Newton's laws of motion. Kinetic energy and momentum analyse.
