Static and dynamical mechanical systems are the heart of all
engineering today. The static systems range from bridges, load bearing members
of roofs to fasteners and bolts. Dynamical systems are also ubiquitous in the
form of machines which convert electrical energy to mechanical energy.
Understanding the equations governing these static and dynamical systems is at
the heart of this course. During this course, we will touch upon the
theoretical tools that we have available to us in order to be able to analyse
these systems. The world around us is full of engineered systems, such as
machines, automobiles, bridges and buildings. The objective of this course is
to present the basic principles of dynamics and help develop proficiency in
applying these principles to formulate and solve dynamics problems. We will
also study applications of dynamics concepts to modeling engineered machines.
