Engineering Mechanics – Statics
Applies vector mechanics to physical bodies in equilibrium, analyzing forces, moments, trusses, centroids, friction, and moments of inertia.
Statics is an engineering mechanics course in which mathematics and scientific principles are applied to solve real-world engineering problems. Statics is the study of physical phenomena, and it is used to describe and determine how objects in equilibrium will react when subjected to different forces. Topics discussed include vector mechanics, forces, moments, couples, centroids, and centers of gravity, analysis of structures, friction, and moments of inertia.
