MECH 2500 - Mechanics and Machine Elements

4 sem hrs cr

This course is a study of the mechanical components that are included in a complex mechatronic system. Topics covered will include an overview of Statics and Kinetics with a focus on force system analysis, study of equilibrium, frames and machines, friction and the effects of forces on the motion of objects. Fundamentals and classification of machine elements to include calculations involving force, stress and wear analysis will also be covered. Prerequisite: MECH 1200 and MATH 1710.
