ENGR 8 — Statics
Rigid bodies in static equilibrium when acted upon by forces and couples in two- and three-dimensional space. Included are the equilibrium of rigid bodies, trusses, frames, and machines, as well as the calculations of the centers of mass, centroids, friction, and moments of inertia. Additional topics which may be covered include distributed forces in cables, beams, and fluid statics; mass moments of inertia; and virtual work. (A, CSU, UC)
