Introduction to engineering analysis using the principles of engineering solid mechanics. Builds on the math and physical reasoning concepts in Physics ENGR 41 to develop skills in modeling and evaluation of engineered systems across a variety of fields. Topics include analysis of static equilibrium in two-and three-dimensions, static analysis of structures, and stress and deformation analysis for axially loaded members. Foundational ideas for more advanced solid mechanics courses such as ME 80 or CEE 101A. Limited enrollment, subject to instructor approval. Prerequisites (complete at least 1 of the following courses): PHYSICS41, PHYSICS41E, or PHYSICS61. Corequisites (be concurrently enrolled in or have completed at least 1 of the following courses): CME 100 or MATH 51. An AP Physics C Mechanics Score of 5 can also fulfill the Physics requirement. Prerequisites strictly enforced.
