Caution to students: this course contains elements of ISU's CE274, EM324, and ME345. Some concepts covered in ISU's CE274 that are apparently missing from this course include equilibrium in 3 dimensions, analysis of frames and machines, and computation of centroids and moments of inertia of composite shapes. Students taking this course in lieu of CE274 will need to spend additional time and get additional instructor/tutor help in subsequent coursework at ISU on these important topics.
