Course Description: This is the second course in engineering mechanics. The
course covers basic concepts and
laws of engineering mechanics for dynamics of particles and rigid bodies. The main topics include kinematics and
kinetics, application of
Course policy: Each
student is responsible for all materials covered in class and assigned homework
regardless of absence. Excessive absence from lecture (e.g., ³ 5 of scheduled classes) may result in failing grade
in the course. If a student stops
attending the lectures without officially dropping the course, will receive a
grade of F. Students are encouraged to
discuss the concepts/homework problems with each other (excluding take home and
in-class exams) to improve their skills in analytical reasoning and problem-solving,
however, work that you submit must be your own. Students requiring classroom
accommodations because of a documented disability should discuss this need with
the professor at the beginning of the semester.
Students not registered with the
Special Services Program should contact their office in Nevins Hall room 1115
(245-2498).
PLEASE NOTE THAT NO FOOD/DRINK IS ALLOWED IN COMPUTER
LABS. ALSO, NO OTHER COMPUTER ACTIVITIES
(i.e., Games, internet search, etc.) ARE ALLOWED DURING LECTURE.
Tests: The main purpose of the
tests is for you to demonstrate your knowledge about the fundamentals/concepts
and skills in problem solving. Obtaining
just the right answer is not sufficient. Method of solution is also very
important. Homework problems will be
assigned on a weekly basis and collected periodically. There
will be chapter quizzes that count as one test, two one-hour tests, and a final
exam, which includes newly covered materials and materials related to the
tests. Chapter quizzes count 20%, each one-hour
test counts 20%, Final Exam: 25%, selected homework: 10%, class participation: 5%. If your homework, exam is late, not readable,
or too messy, points will be taken out from your grades. Makeup exam will be possible in special
circumstances (only if instructor is informed within a reasonable time) in
which an exam with a different format (e.g., oral and/or written) will be
given.
Final grades:
A: 90-100, B: 80-89, C: 70-79, D: 60-69, F: < 60.
