| Overall Educational Objective | To learn the dynamics principles of accelerated motion of particles & rigid bodies, taking into account the geometric aspects of the motion in two dimensions as well as the forces causing the motion by using Newton’s second law, work-energy & impulse-momentum methods. | |||||
| Course Description | This course provides the fundamental aspects of dynamics, covering the following topics: Kinematics of a particle: Rectilinear and curvilinear motion in rectangular, normal-tangential and polar coordinates. Planar kinematics of rigid bodies: Absolute/relative motion, instantaneous center of velocity, motion relative to rotating axes. Planar kinetics of particles: The force-mass-acceleration method. Work-energy and impulse-momentum relations. Planar kinetics of rigid bodies and the work-Energy method. Free and forced vibrations of particles and rigid bodies. |
Course Learning Outcomes and CompetencesUpon successful completion of the course, the learner is expected to be able to:1) Solve kinematic problems of a particle and rigid bodies; 2) Solve kinetic problems of a particle and rigid bodies; 3) Solve free and forced vibration problems of particles and rigid bodies; 4) Design, analyze and implement an either a mass-spring-damper vibration system with tuned-mass damper or a mechanism applied to a real-life machine such as an excavator, crane, etc; 5) Communicate and collaborate on a team, setting goals, accomplishing tasks, and meeting deadlines to develop a project and professionally write its final report; 6) Self-learn and apply new knowledge by his/her own means as a valuable life-long learning skill. |

dorantesd@mef.edu.tr 0212 395 36 40 Assessment: Flipped classroom practice (FCP) activities are conducted during online class time (20-40 min), by solving a similar previously solved exercise, but working in randomly formed teams, and emailing their solution photo to the instructor by the end of the class. The FCP evidence will be the only way to count student class attendance. Rules for attendance: attendance is taken during Flipped Classroom Practice. A minimum of 70% of attendance is mandatory. Rules for Flipped Classroom Practice: Missed Flipped Classroom Practice will be given a zero grade. Participation quizzes with flaws or lack of individual collaboration attitude during team work will be given a grade of one. Successful flipped classroom participation will be given a grade of two. Rules for late submission of the project: It will be discounted 20/100 by each delayed day. Rules for missing a midterm: Provided that a valid justification is approved by the university and presented, a make-up exam will be granted one week after the regular midterm date. Minimum grade to be allowed to pass the course: Satisfactory Project, Laboratory reports, and at least 70% attendance are mandatory to be allowed to pass the course.
