Course Description

The definition and divisions of mechanics , vectors and vector  calculations ,moment concept, equilibrium of particle, equivalent systems equilibrium of rigid bodies, trusses, the center of gravity,  loads acting on the beams, shear force and bending moment diagrams, friction, moment of inertia

Course Objectives

To analyze the conditions of equilibrium (static or moving at constant speed) of rigid bodies under the action of forces.

Course Learning Outcomes

1. To introduce students to the concept of mechanical equilibrium
2. To introduce students to the concepts of shear force and bending moments, and friction forces under static equilibrium
3. To introduce students to the concepts of center of gravity, and centroid,  moment of inertia, , the concepts of internal forces
4. To supplement the basic courses in Maritime transportation and management engineering and Marine engineering.
