EGR-2210 Dynamics

Credits 3
Kinematics and kinetics of particles, systems, and bodies. Topics include work and energy, impulse and momentum, rigid body motion, and rotating bodies. More advanced topics include the general theorems for systems of particles and the inertia tensor.
Prerequisite(s): PHY-1030.
Formerly Advanced Engineering Mechanics.
Course Outcomes

Analyze one-dimensional motion, including location, displacement, distance, velocity, speed, acceleration, average velocity, average speed, average acceleration from a mathematical and graphical perspective.
Analyze two-dimensional motion, including rectangulars, polars, curvilinear coordinates, curvature, radius of curvature, tangential and normal components of velocity and acceleration.
Analyze three-dimensional motion using cylindrical coordinates, equations of motion, relative velocity, and relative acceleration.
Analyze rigid body motion, finding linear and angular velocities, and linear and angular accelerations. Include systems with rigid links as well as systems without rigid links.
Analyze moving systems using forces, torques, and moments of inertia to find accelerations, angular accelerations, reaction forces, and to determine slipping or tipping.
Analyze complex systems in motion or involved in collisions by analyzing energy, momentum, and angular momentum.
