Engineering Dynamics: Hhlee@mail - Ncku.edu - TW Myweb - Ncku.edu - TW/ Hhlee

This document provides an outline for an engineering dynamics course. It includes examples of applying Newton's laws of motion to solve problems involving pulleys and blocks. It also describes how to perform computer simulations of multi-body dynamics problems by establishing equations of motion and iteratively solving for accelerations and forces over time. Key terminology covered includes rigid bodies, kinematics, dynamics, and conservation laws. The course is outlined over 9 chapters covering topics from particle kinematics and dynamics to vibrations and 3D rigid body dynamics.

Example

(Sample Problem 16.3, Page 1035)

A pulley of mass 6 kg and having a radius of gyration of 200


mm is connected to two blocks as shown. Assuming no axle
friction, determine the angular acceleration of the pulley, the
acceleration of each block, and the tension of each cable.
Newton's Second Law:
Block A: TA 2.5g = 2.5a A

(1)

Block B: 5g TB = 5aB

(2)

a A = (0.25)

(4)

= 2.41 rad/s 2 (ccw)

a A = 0.603 m/s 2 ()

aB = 0.362 m/s 2 ()

aB = (0.15)

(5)

TA = 26.0 N

Pulley:

TB (0.15) TA (0.25) = (0.24)

(3)

Kinematics:

Unknowns: , a A , aB , TA , TB .

TB = 47.2 N

Terminologies
Dynamics is a study of motions of bodies and the interacting forces among bodies; these
quantities are generally time dependent.
Bodies with neglegible deformations are called rigid bodies.
Equations of rigid body dynamics consist of two groups:
Kinematics
Principles of physics
Newton's Second Law (Dynamic Equilibrium)
Principle of Work and Energy (Conservation of Energy)
Principle of Impulse and Momentum (Conservation of Momentum)
When resultant external forces pass its mass center, a body can be regarded as a particle.
Plane motion of rigid bodies: a motion in which each particle remains in a plane.
