Main themes

The course is divided in two parts. The first one (2ECTS) continues the introduction of the fundamentals of electromagnetism; the second one (4ECTS) deals with the mechanics of rigid bodies. Both parts extend the skills acquired previously by the students during course FSAB1201 Physics 1. The first part introduces basic laws of electromagnetism, and their applications in vacuum and matter as well (Biot-Savart & Ampere laws; magnetic induction, simple magnetic circuits). Induction phenomena due to variable magnetic fields (Lenz-Faraday laws, inductance) are then treated. The second part starts with elements of 3D vector geometry needed to represent the instantaneous configurations of one or several interconnected rigid bodies. Next its derives the equations describing the dynamics of a single rigid body (Newton-Euler equations), and then it deals with the tools necessary to modelize rigid bodies dynamics (by means of generalized coordinates). Finally, it briefly presents some elements of rigid bodies static's (cutting method, iso- and hyper-static configurations,).
