AMEC 306 - Applied Mechanics I

Description
In Applied Mechanics I, you will explore the practical application of mechanics in the power plant and their application to turbines, compressors, pumps, and other machines. You will study statics and dynamics, centripetal and centrifugal force, friction, lifting machines, work, power, and energy. You will investigate the strength of pressure vessels, first moments, second moments, centroids, shearing and bending; torsion, mechanical efficiency, shaft couplings, modulus of elasticity, modulus of rigidity; and strength of materials.
