Course Description

Class 01 · Chia-Ming Chang

This course provides students with a better understanding of the theory and applications of engineering mechanics. Applied Mechanics 1 is focused on statics, while Applied Mechanics 2 is centered on dynamics.

Class 03 · RIH-TENG WU

This course introduces the dynamics of particles and rigid bodies, focusing on kinematics and kinetics. Students will explore motion characteristics, force applications, and analytical methods in the contexts of engineering applications, such as rigid body movements.

This course serves as a cornerstone for learning advanced civil engineering dynamics, and the course materials integrate theoretical principles with practical applications.
