This course introduces the fundamental principles of engineering mechanics, covering both statics and selected introductory concepts from dynamics. Emphasis is placed on vector-based analysis of forces and moments in two- and three-dimensional systems, equilibrium conditions, and their application to engineering problems.
The course develops a strong analytical foundation through the use of vector algebra, enabling students to analyse spatial force systems, support reactions, and internal forces in structural elements. In addition, selected principles of work, energy, and power are introduced to provide a broader physical understanding applicable to civil, mechanical, and electrical engineering systems.
The course serves as a fundamental basis for further studies in structural analysis, strength of materials, fluid mechanics, and engineering systems, while also supporting interdisciplinary applications in electrical and electronic engineering.
