| Brief description of the Unit |
Within mechanical engineering the understanding of how object move and interact is fundamental to the design of engineering systems. This unit introduces students to the concepts of Newtonian mechanics on which the field of engineering dynamics is founded. The unit features an application-based treatment in order for students to be able to readily assimilate the theory and concepts introduced. |
