Course title, code: Technical Mechanics III, GAJABAN-MECHANI3-1
Introduction of the students to the description of the motion of bodies (kinematics), and exploring the relationship between the forces acting on bodies and the resulting motion (dynamics/kinetics). Demonstrates the application of the fundamental theorems to the analysis of the motion of simple structures made of rigid bodies.
Kinematics of point masses. Planar motions. Kinematic diagrams. Kinematics of rigid bodies: velocity and acceleration state of rigid bodies in planar motions. Finite motions of rigid bodies. Kinematics of mechanisms. Velocity state of mechanisms. Speed and acceleration states of four-bar linkages and crank mechanisms. Kinetics of point masses. Kinetic theorems. Kinetics of loose and rigid point mass systems. Kinetics of rigid bodies. Moment of inertia. Rotational motions of rigid bodies. Physical pendulum. General planar motions of rigid bodies. Rolling motion. Investigation of complex structures with single degree of freedom by decomposition. Calculation of internal forces. Investigation of complex structures with single degree of freedom by decomposition by reduction of mass and force. Basic concepts of collisions. Centric and eccentric collisions of rigid bodies. Relationship between velocities, accelerations and forces in different coordinate systems. Basic concepts of vibrational motions.

-
Knowledge:
Have a comprehensive knowledge of the basic facts, directions and limits of the subject area of engineering.
Knowledge of the general and specific mathematical, scientific and social principles, rules, contexts and procedures necessary for the operation of the field of engineering.
Comprehensive knowledge of the operating principles and structural units of the machines, power tools, mechanical equipment and tools used.
Knowledge of measurement procedures, instruments, apparatus and measuring equipment used in mechanical engineering.
Ability to analyse at a basic level the disciplines making up the knowledge base of the field of engineering, to formulate relationships synthetically and to carry out appropriate evaluative activities.
Ability to identify routine technical problems and to identify, formulate and solve (using standard operations in practice) the theoretical and practical background required to solve them.
Ability to construct basic models of technical systems and processes.
Ability to communicate orally and in writing in his/her mother tongue and at least one foreign language in a professionally appropriate manner in his/her field of specialisation.
Open to understanding, accepting and authentically communicating professional and technological developments and innovations in the field of engineering.
Mid-term study requirements:
Two tests will be written at pre-announced classes. Their duration is 90 minutes, their value is 50 points. They may contain problems and theoretical questions covered at the classes or given for individual study. If the mid-term score does not exceed 40, the admission to the exam can be earned at a replacement test worth of 100 points, which reviews the entire semester's material, and in which previous points are not counted. Admission to the examination (Article 11 of the Exam Rules): a total score of 50 or more at the start of the examination period. The tests can only be replaced with a medical certificate. The medical certificate must be presented and the negotiation of the replacement test must begin no later than one week after recovery. Tests must be written using a pen; tests written using a pencil will not be awarded points. Only pocket calculators not suitable for storing or transmitting textual, visual and audio information may be used when writing the tests. During the tests, the student may only leave their seat after the final submission of the paper. During the tests headgear, scarves or other clothing suitable for concealing cheating devices may not be worn.
Exam requirements:
The exam is written, its duration 90 minutes and is worth 100 points. It may contain problems and theoretical questions covered at the classes or given for individual study. Half of the points above 50 obtained during the period of study will be added to the exam score. The exam grade will be determined in accordance with the table in § 11(2) of TVSz. Tests must be written using a pen; tests written using a pencil will not be awarded points. Only pocket calculators not suitable for storing or transmitting textual, visual and audio information may be used when writing the tests. During the tests, the student may only leave their seat after the final submission of the paper. During the tests headgear, scarves or other clothing suitable for concealing cheating devices may not be worn.
1st position: The use of GAI tools is not permitted when solving tasks. This means that GAI tools cannot be used when creating or solving formative or summative assessment elements, and the use of generative AI constitutes academic misconduct. The use of AI tools for language and spelling checking is not subject to the complete ban under the 1st position.
Video explanations regarding the parts of the material assigned for individual work. Documents, slides, tables published on Teams and/or Neptun Meet Street.
