Foundation of Structural Dynamics at Coursera Course details
- A course with variable geometry where everyone, we hope, will find personal benefits. The parts can be studied sequentially or independently; and inside each part, elementary learning items can be picked up.
- Globally, this course proposes a deep knowledge of fundamental dynamics, with possible explicit and implicit applications in structural dynamics, but also in physics and control of any dynamic system (automatics, '¦).
- The concepts of static, dynamic, and thermodynamic approaches are defined, followed by the analytical Newtonian foundations of discrete (digital) dynamics.
- Dynamics is not simply an extension of statics, but another modeling with open possibilities. The basic theorems (Newton's equivalence principle, K'nig' s theorems, conservations) are detailed in the perspective of structural applications.
- This course opens perspectives towards not only the general dynamics of structures but also towards robotics and control of dynamic systems. These concepts will be learned in a second course (Developments of structural dynamics).
