Course abstract
The aim of the study course is to master the main basic principles of theoretical mechanics. Students learn the concept of force, methods of force calculation in dynamics, methods of calculation of kinematic parameters of motion under the influence of forces, develop logical thinking and form a knowledge base for the acquisition of technical disciplines.
Learning outcomes and their assessment
Knowledge - understands what is called force in dy¬namics, which is the force of inertia. Has an understanding of the calculation of inertial forces by the projection method and is able to compile equilibrium equations. Has an understanding of how to determine the moment of inertia and is able to count them. Understands how to determine the conditions of motion in mechanics and is able to calculate (tests).
Skills - is able to view in an abstract and analytical way the equilibrium state of various solid bodies and structures and the effect on other mechanical systems (independent works).
Competence - the ability to use the basic principles of theoretical mechanics in practical and scientific work, as well as in the invention and implementation of technically innovative processes (independent works).

Requirements for awarding credit points
The test is formed as follows:
• All (six) tests must be written successfully (at least 4 points);
• All correctly solved independent work is included.
Description of the organization and tasks of students’ independent work
Independent work - To solve theoretical tasks of mechanics, in-depth study of the topics covered in lectures and perform independent work:
1. Independent work: The 1st task of dynamics.
2. Independent work: The 2nd basic task of dynamics.
3. Independent work: Strength work and power.
4. Independent work: The Dalambere principle.
5. Independent work: Virtual transfers.
Criteria for Evaluating Learning Outcomes
Grade with a mark is made of the arithmetic mean of the sum of all marks (tests and practical works).
