EMI, the Engineering Mechanics Institute of ASCE will hold its annual conference on June 2-4, 2011 at Northeastern University in Boston, MA. Prof. Ming L. Wang, Prof. Dionisio P. Bernal and Prof. Jerome F. Hajjar will be the Co-Chairs of the EMI 2011 Conference. For details, visit http://www.northeastern.edu/emi2011/ .
The assessment includes:
Assessment results will be not be posted online. Online activities are for discussions only, no grading based on that. The first course-assignment will be given in 19/10, Friday.
Please introduce yourself in this blog. This is a class to learn
engineering mechanics, but also a class to make friends with in-class
and international students, and worldwidely recognized experts.

1. Cross product of two vectors
2. Equilibrium of many-particle system
What is the purpose of the course?
Ensure students have a clear working understanding of the principles of engineering mechanics and an ability to apply them to simple engineering systems.
Brief description of the unit
• Scalar and vector quantities.
• Forces and Newton's laws of motions.
• Kinematics of a particle; co-ordinate systems.
