Previous knowledge expected: Basic mechanics, high school mathematics. In a preliminary exam, knowledge about basic mechanics will be tested.
Objective (expected results of study and acquired competences): Students completing this course acquire the skills to assess and interpret complex structures by separating them into simplified, idealized subsystems which can be calculated without difficulty.
