CIV 205 – Kinematics and Dynamics

CIV 205 – Kinematics and Dynamics; Weekly hours 2+1, ECTS: 5
The objective of the course is the students to become able to understand the basic kinematic and dynamic characteristics of movement, knowing the laws of dynamics and the ability of their application in solving of application problems related to the movement of bodies. Kinematics. Introduction. Finite equations of movement of a point, speed and acceleration. Movement of a point in a natural coordinate system. Movement of a point in a polar coordinate system. Kinematic diagrams. Movement of a rigid body in space, degree of freedom. Finite equations of free movement of a rigid body around a immovable axis. Complaint movement of a rigid body. Mechanisms, degree of freedom, instantaneous poles of speeds. Dynamics: Differential equations of movement of a point and general integration.  Dynamics of a rectilinear motion and oblique shot. Forced movement of a point of a material line. Dynamics of a rigid body during translation. Dynamics of a rigid body during a rotation around a stationary axis. Differential equations of movement of a material system. Laws of dynamics of a material system. Principles in dynamics.
