This course forms the basis of engineering mechanics. It is intended that the students develop the abilities and knowledge to understand, solve, and visualize different problems of mechanical and structural systems in static equilibrium. The main topics of the class are: Force and force systems. Equilibrium of particles and rigid bodies in two and three…

This course covers the theory of structural systems under different types of dynamic excitations. It aims to: Provide a deep understanding of the dynamic response and behavior of civil engineering structures Introduce and discuss the mathematical formulation of the equation of motion for discrete, including single-degree-of-freedom (SDOF) and multi-degree-of-freedom (MDOF) systems, and continuous systems Analyze…
