Catalog Course Description: Engineering dynamics is concerned with the motion of bodies subjected to the action of forces, in particular the accelerated motion of a body. The subject of dynamics will be presented in two parts: kinematics, which treats only the geometric aspects of the motion, and kinetics, which is the analysis of the forces causing the motion. To develop these principles, the dynamics of a particle will be discussed first, followed by topics in rigid-body dynamics in both two and three dimensions.
 
Course Learning Outcomes: -Analyze problems involving motion (kinematics) and the forces that cause it (kinetics). (3,5)
-Determine correct approaches to modeling the motion of particles and rigid-bodies. (3,5)
-Accurately model real world mechanical processes. (3,5,6)
-Communicate technical information in an effective manner (2)
