MAT/07
The course introduces the fundamental principles of classical mechanics and their applications in a physical-mathematical key to model, analyse and solve problems related to engineering. The course aims at providing students with basic notions of vector calculus, kinematics, geometry of masses and statics of systems of material points, rigid bodies, and composite systems.

Objectives:

  • Analyse and translate a concrete problem of mechanics into an abstract model
  • Identify the geometric-material characterization of a mechanical system
  • Describe the kinematics of an arbitrary holonomically constrained system with special focus on rigid motions
  • Illustrate kinematically the constrains and the related exerted actions imposed on a system
  • Individuate the equilibrium state of a rigid system and determine its internal and external constraint reactions
