Engineering

This course offers a study of classical mechanics applied to flight mechanics and aerospace systems. Topics include: kinematics of point particles; dynamics of point particles; kinematics of a rigid body; geometry of masses; rigid body dynamics; systems of rigid bodies; torque-free motion of the rigid body; the airplane as a point particle. Pre-requisites: Calculus I, Calculus II, Linear Algebra, Physics I. 

This course introduces the dynamics of particles and rigid bodies, focusing on kinematics and kinetics. The course explores motion characteristics, force applications, and analytical methods in the contexts of engineering applications, such as rigid body movements. This course serves as a cornerstone for learning advanced civil engineering dynamics, and the course materials integrate theoretical principles with practical applications. 

Course Prerequisite: Calculus  

This course provides the theory and practice for students to understand ecodesign and sustainability and its affects on design practice. Students examine the design methods related to ecodesign and sustainable design and its applications. Project work is conducted to provide the bridge to integrate such theoretical knowledge into practice.
