How would you determine the forces and moments in the wing of an airplane to make sure that it's strong enough to fly? Or find internal forces in excavators, steer loaders, or, in structures like an oil pumping unit? How do you figure out friction forces between objects and rolling resistance that wheels experience? Would you like to know how to accurately map the internal loads of a travelling crane or calculate the tension forces in the cables of a suspension bridge?
My name is Mark. I'm an Aerospace & Robotics engineer and I will teach you all that here, in Engineering Mechanics: Statics Part 2. Rigid body equilibrium in 2D & 3D, Frames, Pulleys, & Machines, Virtual work, equilibrium stability in mass spring systems, friction between surfaces, friction between flat belts and fixed disks, rolling resistance of a wheel, trusses, internal loads, shear force and moment diagrams, cables for suspension bridges - you will not only receive immense amount of intuition in engineering mechanics, but also, proper applied Math, that's a promise. After this course, you will have strong engineering base to continue with more advanced topics such as Dynamics and structural analysis.
This course is a direct continuation to Engineering Mechanics: Statics Part 1. It is highly recommended that you cover that course first. The teaching style requires you to be very proactive. I give you a problem and the tools to solve it. Then, I ask you to solve it yourself, and only then, after at least trying it, you should see the solution videos. That's how you become a real PROBLEM SOLVER.
If you're looking for a career in Mechanical, Aerospace, Civil or Maritime engineering, then this Engineering Mechanics: Statics course is for you.
