A course for students advancing in Engineering programmes that requires in-depth analysis of components and structures, ENGR102 reinforces concepts of free-body diagrams and the mechanics of real life applications (both statics and dynamics).
A course for students advancing in engineering programmes that requires in-depth analysis of components and structures, ENGR102 reinforces concepts of free-body diagrams and the fundamental of classical solid mechanics with real life applications (both static and dynamic).
Understanding (in simple, basic terms) what it means to codify real-life observations (relating to statics and dynamics) with the help of mathematic-mechanical expressions.Students will:have developed and be able to demonstrate an understanding of the forces, moments and couples that act on rigid bodieshave developed and be able to demonstrate the ability to analyse the forces, moments and couples of trusses, frames and machineshave developed and be able to demonstrate the application of vector methods to the analysis of statics of rigid bodies.have developed basic skills in kinematics, mass distribution of rigid bodies and dynamics, as well as have gained understanding of methods in classical mechanicshave developed and be able to demonstrate basic skills to derive and to analyse the equations of motion for simple structures

There is one tutorial question set at each lecture a total of 4 questions per week. Assistance for the weekly tutorial problems will be provided in each of the tutorial sessions. The tutorial time is an opportunity to receive one on one assistance with the weekly problems and to receive help with your specific questions.Quizzes:Preliminary quiz - This quiz is compulsory although no marks are given for the quiz. The quiz is designed to show students the expected level of prior learning in math and physics that are required for ENGR102.The quiz has the added benefit of demonstrating how the weekly quizzes will work on Learn. It is your responsibility to know how the Learn quiz tool works and this is an excellent opportunity to try quiz tool before the formal quizzes start in Week 2. The quiz includes trigonometry, vector addition, and 1-D motion. It is suggested that students that do not perform well should do extra review during the first week or risk being left behind before we even start. A number of online video resources that can help with your review have been identified on YouTube and a list of these resources can found on Learn in Section 2-Lecture Material-Other Learning Resources.Weekly Quizzes - There will be weekly online quizzes as part of this course. The quizzes are intended to reinforce your learning and to provide formative assessment. The quizzes will be given through Learn and will include numerical and multiple choice formats. The quizzes will open on Monday morning at 9:00AM and close on Wednesday at 10:00pm. Once you start the quiz you will have 90 minutes to complete it.While you are taking a quiz, your internet browser will be locked so you cannot search online. All quizzes are compulsory. No special considerations will be given for quizzes that are missed for any reason including illness, human error on your part, technology problems, etc. Any appeal regarding the quizzes must be submitted in writing to Professor Fleischmann within 48 hours of the quiz closing. Typically the quizzes will include 4 problems, 2 of the problems will be taken directly from the homework with only the variables being changed in the problems. The other 2 questions will be new questions that you have not seen before. With two problems taken from the homework, it is critical that you complete homework and be sure you understand the material before attempting the quiz.
