5. Course Objectives:

The goal of this course is to provide the basic knowledge including laws of statics, vector mechanism, force and force system, type of connection, reaction, force system resultant, equation of equilibrium of particle, body, forces due to friction and centroid. In addition, student is provided knowledge relating to internal force and equilibrium of plane and space structure.

6. Brief Description of Course Content:

This course provides students with basic knowledge of statics, kinematics, and dynamics of absolute solids. Which: statics provides knowledge related to the static equilibrium conditions of the point, of the solid under the action of force; kinematics is the study of geometrical parameters of the parallel plane motion of a solid, of a point belonging to a solid; Kinetics is the study of the motion of a rigid body under the action of a force.
On the basis of the knowledge learned above, students will determine the binding reactions in the mechanical system. From the kinematics knowledge, students can calculate the design of the structure satisfying the geometrical requirements of the given motion. Finally, knowledge of dynamics allows students to determine the properties of motion of a rigid body under the action of a force.
