Mechanics

Statics: Fundamentals of mechanics, equations of equilibrium and their application, friction, cables, center of mass, internal forces in a beam.

Strenght of materials: stress analysis, design criteria, elastic materials, torsion, stress and deformations in beams, statically undetermined problems, buckling.

Knowledge:
-Fundamental understanding of mechanics and basic statics.
-The candidate should have basic knowledge about calculating the powers in static issues.
-The candidate should have basic knowledge of the calculation of tension and deformation in constructions.

Skills:
-The candidate should be able to analyse static issues, and resolve these by applying the equilibrium equations. The candidate should be able to solve and evaluate static problems with graphical and related methods.
