Aim: To make the student familiar with the fundamental concepts of mechanics and to enable him/her to solve simple mechanical and technical problems using analytical methods. By combining the use of analytical methods with computer simulation, the aim is to impart a more intuitive understanding of the laws of motion. At the same time, using computer simulation, it should be possible to solve more complex and technically relevant tasks and to demonstrate the importance of non-linear dynamics phenomena. Modelling as a process and a tool is stressed throughout the course. The central topics of the course are used for training study technique, while the associated project topics are also for study guidance. The course 10003 is a part of this course.
