Learning outcomes |
Knowing to apply the basic laws of Mechanics to Engineering problems related to system equilibrium. At the end of the course, the student should be able to formulate a static problem, develop a model of a system, identify the forces acting on a system, analyze the static equilibrium, and determine the forces or reactions.
