Objectives

1- BACKGROUND:
Mathematics, Algebra, Physics, Statics, Mechanisms, Mechanical Drawing.

2- SPECIFIC AIMS:
1. To be acquainted with the essential concepts of KINEMATICS that is related with the motion of RIGID BODIES. To determine its velocity and acceleration.
2. To know how to determine velocity fields and contemporaneous accelerations in absolute or relative motions of the various mechanism components in an arbitrary 3D motion.
3. To identify what happens on a solid due to its motion (mass and inertia).
4. To know how to determine the dynamic balance of mechanical systems through vector theorems, energy theorems, impulse theorem and quantity of movement.

Eligibility for exams

According to General Evaluation Rules of FEUP

Calculation formula of final grade

1. Students will have to attend to two exams (9 of November; January 2010)
2. The first exam will exclusively test the concepts of kinematics.
3. The second exam will test the themes taught on the second part of the semester.
4. Both exams worth 50% of the final grade.
5. Students will have to achieve a minimum grade of 7 (6.50) out of 20 on each of the exams.
6. Students who:
-did not reach an average grade of 10 out of 20 in both exams
- reached an average grade of 10 out of 20 but did not follow the rule on item 5
- missed one of the exams
Will have an opportunity to be tested in February 2010. The exam will be cover what have been taught during the semester.
