CIVE2221 — Statics and Solid Mechanics: Reviews & Ratings

CIVE2221 (Statics and Solid Mechanics) course reviews and ratings at Northeastern (NEU). Average rating 3.2/5. Compare professors with RateMyProfessor reviews.

Connects fundamentals of Newtonian physics to the stresses and deformations in solids. Introduces properties of areas and volumes (centroidal axes, moments of inertia); equilibrium of particles and rigid bodies in two and three dimensions; analysis of internal forces in trusses and simple frames; shear and moment diagrams in beams; computation of stresses induced by axial force, moment, shear, and torque; and mechanical properties of materials.
