Rationale:

The subject Applied Mechanics deals with basic concepts of mechanics like laws of forces, moments, friction, centre of gravity, laws of motion and simple machines which are required by the students for further understanding of other allied subjects. The subject enhances the analytical ability of the students.

Learning Outcomes:

After undergoing this course, the students will be able to:

• Interpret various types of units and their conversion from one to another.
• Analyze different types of forces acting on a body and draw free body diagrams.
• Determine the resultant of coplanar concurrent forces.
• Calculate the co-efficient of friction for different types of surfaces.
• Calculate the least force required to maintain equilibrium on an inclined plane.
• Determine the centroid/centre of gravity of plain and composite laminar and solid bodies.
• Determine velocity ratio, mechanical advantage and efficiency of simple machines

Instructional Strategy:

Applied Mechanics being a fundamental subject, the teacher are expected to emphasize on the application of Applied Mechanics in various subjects so that students are able to appreciate the importance of the subject. Students should also be made conversant with the use of scientific calculator to solve numerical problems

Means of Assessment:

1. Assignments and quiz/class tests
2. Mid and end-term written tests
3. Model/prototype making.
