• Argue to and persuade a project owner, teachers and a board orally, with visual aids and in writing
• Present analysis or experiment results in laboratory reports

Learning Outcomes of UE

understand the basic principles of Dynamics (correlation between forces acting on a mechanical system and its motion):
apply these principles, in a rigorous and rational modelling process, in the context of industrial or every day life examples (resonance, balancing, gyroscopic effects,...);
strengthen the intuition with respect to problems involving the relation between forces and motion;

Content of UE

Kinetics of rigid body; d'Alembert's principle; general theorems of Dynamics; one or two degree of freedom vibrating systems: free or forced response, resonance, frequency response; Dynamics of rigid body: balancing, gyroscopic effects;

Prior Experience

<em>Trigonometry; planar and space geometry; Algebra: resolution of a set of linear equations, matrix calculus, eigenvalues and eigenvectors; differential calculus: resolution of differential equations, Laplace transform; theoretical Mechanics: Kinematics and Statics of Mechanical Systems.</em>
