Aim of the event:
The lecture "Statics" presents the basic principles for the evaluation of static systems in engineering.

Target group:
Students of mechanical engineering, industrial engineering, informatics, techno mathematics, physics and teaching qualification

Contents:
Starting with a physical definition of force, different equilibrium systems are analyzed. This includes plane as well as three dimensional force groups acting on a point or on a rigid boby. Another point of main emphasis is the evaluation of internal forces and moments in plane structures. This includes the analysis of frames and trusses. In addition to the equilibrium axiom the principle of virtual work in the context of analytical statics is introduced. In weekly exercises the students learn to apply the principles to concrete technical problems.
