Course Objectives This course is designed to introduce the students to the fundamental principles of kinematics and kinetics of particles, systems of particles, and rigid bodies (Newtonian mechanics). It will prepare the students for higher-level dynamics and mechanics courses and applications. The course will demonstrate applications of Newtonian mechanics to a set of practical problems. The students will be trained to solve such problems by applying the principles of Newtonian mechanics to mechanical systems consisting of rigid components. 5. Graduate Attributes Knowledge Base for Engineering Problem Analysis

Level C Level C

This second-year course further develops the students knowledge of engineering principles by expanding on the principles of engineering mechanics covered in previous courses. Through several in-class examples, students will be taught to identify and define the nature of a technical problem and break down the problem into manageable elements. The students will complete a series of assignments and in-class quizzes that will require them to apply the problem solving skills that have been taught in the lectures.

6. Course Outcomes Upon successful completion of this course, the students should be able to: - Demonstrate a sound understanding of the fundamental principles of kinematics and kinetics of particles, systems of particles, and rigid bodies. - Properly formulate the equations governing the motion of particles and rigid bodies subject to given constraints and initial conditions. - Solve the governing equations for the dynamic behaviour of simple problems encountered in engineering practice. - Demonstrate their competence in interpreting their mathematical solution to a dynamics rigid body problem. - Effectively communicate solutions to problems by oral, graphical and in written presentations. - Use the computer to analyze the motions of particles and rigid bodies of open-ended problems. 7. Tips for Success - Attend class. - Login to Blackboard daily for announcements, new postings, and new deadlines. - Keep up with the readings. - The PowerPoint lecture slides are not a suitable replacement for the material covered in the textbook. - The lecture slides only provide a condensed summary of the course material, whereas the textbook provides more a comprehensive understanding of the material. - Dont hesitate to ask questions. 8. Prerequisites - ENGR2260U: Statics & Solid Mechanics - MATH1850U: Linear Algebra for Engineers 9. Course Organization - Two lectures per week (1.5 hours each lecture). - One tutorial (hour per week). 10. Required Course Texts and Other Materials R. C.

Academic Integrity and Conduct UOIT is committed to the fundamental values of preserving academic integrity as defined in UOIT policies and contained in the UOIT Calendar. Students should familiarize themselves with UOIT's policies and statements in this area. Acts of academic dishonesty, including plagiarism, cheating, aiding others in cheating, and examination impersonation, will be dealt with severely as they threaten the integrity of the academic system and are not acceptable. Further information about academic misconduct can be found in the Academic Integrity link on your laptop. 20. Accessibility Students with disabilities may request to be considered for formal academic accommodation in accordance with the Ontario Human Rights Code. Students seeking accommodation must make their requests through the Centre for Students with Disabilities in a timely manner, and provide relevant and recent documentation to verify the effect of their disability and to allow the University to determine appropriate accommodations. Accommodation decisions will be made in accordance with the Ontario Human Rights Code. Accommodations will be consistent with and supportive of the essential requirements of courses and programs, and provided in a way that respects the dignity of students with disabilities and encourages integration and equality of opportunity. Reasonable academic accommodation may require instructors to exercise creativity and flexibility in responding to the needs of students with disabilities while maintaining academic integrity.
