ADDITIONAL TOPICS 148; Ingeniería en Tecnologías de la Información y Comunicación N2 - This Study Guide offers a complete and step-by-step explanation of the basic elements of dynamics to help develop your problem-solving abilities. It is assumed that you have successfully completed a course in statics and, therefore, are familiar with forces, moments, couples, resultants, and free-body diagrams, all of which are essential components of the study of dynamics. The purpose of engineering centers around creative design, and engineering practice requires problem-solving in the design process. The decision process continually used in engineering design must be supported with a strong analytical and problem-solving ability. To solve a prob-lem, you must first formulate it. Problem formulation is the process of building a mathematical model that can generate specific answers (numbers or relationships) to predict the behavior of the physical problem. Design decisions are then based on these predictions. The analysis of a typical engineering problem can be represented as follows ER -
