EGR 280 - Dynamics


Credit(s) 3.00
Lecture Hours: 3.00
This course focuses on particle and rigid body motion. Kinematics, kinetics, work-energy, and impulse-momentum principles are covered for particles and rigid bodies in one-dimension (1-D) and two-dimensions (2-D). Three-dimensional (3-D) rigid body kinematics and kinetics are introduced.

Prerequisite(s): EGR 180 , MAT 210 , and a minimum grade of C in PHY 212 
SLOs:
Upon successful completion of this course students will be able to:

  • Develop an understanding of particle and rigid body motion through the study of kinematics and kinetics applied to engineering applications.

  • Develop an understanding of the conservation principles of work and energy and impulse and momentum as applied to engineering applications.

  • Demonstrate an integrated understanding of engineering dynamics principles through applications involving problem solving and solutions to engineering scenarios.

  • Demonstrate a systematic approach to problem solving.

  • Develop fundamental skills for higher-level engineering courses.
