ME 457/557 Intermediate Dynamics

Credits: (3-0) 3

This course presents a continuation of the study of the dynamics of particles and rigid bodies from ME 221 . Topics include two-dimensional and three-dimensional kinematics and kinetics of rigid bodies, equations of motion and their solution via Matlab / Simulink, and an introduction to analytical dynamics via Lagrange’s equations.

Prerequisites: ME 352 and MATH 373
Notes: Students enrolled in ME 557 will be held to a higher standard than those enrolled in ME 457.
