Course Objective

A major goal of a modern dynamics course is to produce students who are proficient in the use of the best available methodology for formulating equations of motion. In this regard, the course aims to develop the student's ability and insight for the analysis of dynamics problems in matrix notation which is suitable for computer applications. Formulation of equations of motion and extracting the information from these equations are the other objectives of the course.

Learning Outcomes of the Course Unit

1   Defining and solving kinematics of dynamic problems in 3D space.
2   Defining and solving kinetics of dynamic problems in 3D space
3   Formulating the dynamic problems in matrix notation.
4   Forming energy functions of bodies in 3D space.
5   Formulating equations of motion in 3D space.
6   Extracting the dynamic information from equations of motion.
