DESCRIPTION AND CONTEXTUALIZATION OF THE SUBJECT.



The objective of Applied Mechanics is to establish knowledge and skills related to the Statics, Kinematics and Dynamics of rigid solids.

These ideas will serve as a scientific-technical basis for the engineers in the industrial area.

Applied Mechanics has a very close relationship with Physics and Mathematics, and will serve to broaden the physical sense of the students. The course will serve to develop the analytical ability to divide a problem into simpler parts, so that once the parts are understood to be able to solve the problem as a whole. The concepts of this subject are within the field of vector calculus and matrix algebra, so the skills acquired in the Physics, Calculus and Algebra subjects will be necessary to be able to solve the problems numerically and symbolically

COMPETENCES / LEARNING OUTCOMES OF THE SUBJECT.



The object of the course is to establish the precise knowledge and skills on the statics, kinematics and dynamics of rigid solids, which serve as the basis for the disciplines that incorporate the theory of mechanisms and machines and the resistance of materials. Intimately connected with physics and mathematics, mechanics should contribute to increase the physical and practical sense of the students, providing them with a synthetic analytical capacity that allows them to decompose problems into simple parts and then relate them, once they have been established dependencies.



The learning Outcomes of the Subject Matter:

- C.1 Be able to analyse mechanical phenomena in the field of statics, kinematics and dynamics.

- C.2 Be able to choose the most appropriate and efficient resolution tools to solve mechanical problems in the previous field and under the rigid body hypothesis.

- C.3 Be able to assess the need for simplification of the real system and the adequacy of mathematical models of mechanical systems.

- C.4 Be able to interpret the results of mechanical analyzes and their adaptation to reality.

- C.5 Be able to distribute, interact and present a problem, its resolution and its results in a working group orally and in writing

THEORETICAL AND PRACTICAL CONTENTS



Topic 1 VECTORS Assuming prior knowledge of the concept of vector, we will focus basically on the study of vector systems.

Topic 2 GEOMETRY OF MASSES Distribution of matter in geometric spaces through the concepts of center of mass and first and second order moments.

Topic 3 STATICS Concept of equilibrium in mechanical systems. Active forces and bonding forces, smooth bonds and rough bonds.

Topic 4 KINEMATICS Concept of position, velocity and acceleration. Relative motion. Kinematics of the rigid body. Kinematics of systems composed of rigid solids.

Topic 5 DYNAMICS Laws of dynamics. Theorems of dynamics, for the point and for material systems.

Topic 6 INTRODUCTION TO THE STUDY OF THE RESISTANCE OF MATERIALS Tension and deformation states. Traction and compression. Cortadura and its applications. General theory of bending.

METHODOLOGY



In the theoretical classes the theory will be explained and related examples will be solved.

In the classroom practices can explain theoretical concepts and propose exercises to develop.

• Final Assessment System
• Tools and qualification percentages:
  • Written test to be taken (%): 80
  • Realization of Practical Work (exercises, cases or problems) (%): 20

ORDINARY CALL.



Evaluation is based on a continuous frame as follows:

The written tests to develop are detailed below:



Three partial exams:

1) Vectors. Mass geometry. Static

2) Kinematics.

3) Dynamic. Introduction to the resistance of materials.



The passing of each partial releases the subject. Students will sit for the non-passed parts in the final exams.



The final grade of the exams will be the average of the three parts.

Who does not appear to the final exam, will obtain a grade of not presented.



The deliverables to be performed will consist of different tasks that will be described throughout the course. Some must be done individually, others in a group. Some of them will be face-to-face and will be held in class and others will be non-face-to-face.



In the event that a face-to-face assessment of the subject cannot be carried out, the pertinent changes will be made to carry out an on-line assessment by using the existing IT tools at the UPV / EHU. The characteristics of this online assessment will be published in the student guides and in eGela

EXTRAORDINARY CALL



The final exams will be attended with pending material.

The final mark of the exams will be the average of the three parts.

Whoever does not appear for the final exam, will obtain a grade of not presented
