This course is an advanced study of bodies in motion as applied to engineering systems and structures. We will study the dynamics of rigid bodies in 3D motion. This will consist of both the kinematics and kinetics of motion. Kinematics deals with the geometrical aspects of motion describing position, velocity, and acceleration, all as a function of time. Kinetics is the study of forces acting on these bodies and how it affects their motion.

TOP REVIEWS FROM ADVANCED ENGINEERING SYSTEMS IN MOTION: DYNAMICS OF THREE DIMENSIONAL (3D) MOTION
Have done 4 course from Professor Whiteman, and I'm happy. Learned a lot in a relatively short time, I really appreciate it.
It really changed my perception of viewing things around me. Dr. Whiteman is an expert at teaching mechanics. I recommend this course for all the non-circuit branches of engineering.
The first lesson was very good i will today and maybe tomorrow see the next lesson and i hope that it is also good
