Course Overview
The Rigid Body Dynamics training course is an in-depth study of rigid body basic mechanics, a subset of engineering dynamics. Coursera provides the programme in partnership with the Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology (KAIST). The course imparts knowledge of critical concepts like force and motion, work-energy, impulse-momentum in the context of Newton’s second, and how it acts over time and displacement.
Apart from the high-quality video lectures, which are about 15 min in length, the class will also consist of many readings and practice problem-solving. Students will also receive homework assignments, and the Rigid Body Dynamics programme will culminate with a final exam, which will incorporate all important topics learnt by you throughout the course.
Upon successfully finishing the Rigid Body Dynamics certification course, you will get a course-completion certificate from Coursera and the Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology (KAIST). This certificate will be displayed on the Coursera accomplishment page, is also printable and shareable and can be easily linked to your LinkedIn page. The training will take almost 14 hours to complete and will have English subtitles.
