Mechanics mainly deals with problems connected with motion or


equilibrium of material and bodies and resulting interaction between them. Its
purview come varieties of general and specialized engineering discipline
connected with mining structures, machine mechanism or their parts.

Basic understanding of the concept and principles involved in mechanics


is essential. Application of the principles to engineering situation relevant to
mining should be emphasized.

COURSE OUTCOMES:
After undergoing the course of study the student shall be able to

1. Understand the concept and principles of machines.


2. Apply the principles to solve engineering problems.
