Dive into a comprehensive 23-hour course on Vector Statics from Cal Poly Pomona. Begin with an introduction to forces in a plane and vectors, then progress through 2D and 3D equilibrium of particles, vector and scalar products, couples, and equivalent systems. Explore rigid body equilibrium in both 2D and 3D, analyze trusses using methods of joints and sections, and study frames and machines. Examine dry friction, wedges, and belts before delving into centroids, distributed loads, and moments of inertia. Conclude with the parallel axis theorem, gaining a thorough understanding of vector statics principles and applications.
