Objectifs Généraux
- Recall the equations governing the linear and curvilinear motion of particles - Distinguish between particle and rigid body in motion analysis . Analyze the absolute motion of rigid bodies.

Contenu
The topics covered in General Mechanics 1 consist of a general introduction of Mechanics and the study of kinematics: 1- Introduction: generalities (particle vs body), vectors, reference systems (Cartesian, cylindrical, spherical) 2- Rectilinear motion of a particle: velocity and acceleration, motion equations, continuous and erratic motion 3- General curvilinear motion of a particle: rectangular components, projectile motion 4- Curvilinear motion of a particle: normal and tangential components, cylindrical components, circular motion 5- Two-particle motion analysis: dependent absolute motion, Relative motion 6- Kinematics of a rigid body: translation, rotation about a fixed axis, absolute and relative motions
