Ability to apply fundamental principles of physics and mathematics in the application of engineering systems, to make a logical, sequential and systematic approach to the modeling and solution of engineering problems.
1. Investigation of the basic concepts of mechanics and equilibrium conditions of bodies in equilibrium, mainly by vector analysis.
2. Simplification, abstraction, modeling and free-body diagrams of machine equipment and parts, mechanisms and space structures encountered in practice.
3. Calculation of the reactions in the supports as a result of the effect of the external force-moment systems to which the modeled rigid bodies are subjected and, in parallel, the internal force-moment systems within the rigid bodies.
4. Use of mathematical methods to analyze the static equilibrium conditions of the modeled bodies or mechanisms.
