Equilibrium is the foundation of all structural and mechanical analysis. This course provides a rigorous study of the equilibrium of rigid bodies in two and three dimensions. It covers reactions, equilibrium equations, constraints, and statical determinacy, supported by extensive worked examples.

Engineers, architects, and applied scientists constantly rely on equilibrium principles to design safe, efficient, and reliable systems. From bridges and buildings to machines and vehicles, every stable structure depends on correct modelling of supports, forces, and constraints. Mastery of equilibrium ensures accuracy in analysis and prevents costly or dangerous failures.

By completing this course, you will be able to draw free-body diagrams, apply equilibrium equations in 2D and 3D, and classify and analyse different support and constraint conditions. You will understand when a system is properly constrained, over-constrained, or indeterminate, and you will have practical experience solving a wide range of equilibrium problems.

This course is intended for undergraduate students in mechanical, civil, and structural engineering, but it is also useful to anyone studying applied mechanics at an advanced level. It provides both a theoretical foundation and practical problem-solving skills valuable to practising engineers, technical instructors, or anyone needing precise understanding of equilibrium in rigid body mechanics.

Engineering Mechanics I

Statics

This course provides a rigorous foundation in the concept of functions, the building block of calculus. We begin with the real number system - rationals, irrationals, intervals, and infinity - before defining real-valued functions, their domains, and ranges. You will systematically study all key function families: polynomial, rational, algebraic, piecewise-defined, and transcendental, including exponential, logarithmic, trigonometric, and hyperbolic types.

A command of functions is essential for all technical and quantitative disciplines.

This course provides a rigorous, theoretical introduction to differential calculus. We will move beyond computation to understand the fundamental nature of the derivative, beginning with its formal definition as the limit of a difference quotient. The curriculum is designed to build a deep conceptual understanding of what it means for a function to be differentiable and the profound consequences of this property.

The primary focus is on formal proofs and theoretical results. We will systematically derive the rules of differentiation, including the product, quotient, and chain rules, directly from first principles. This course emphasizes the "why" behind the mechanics of calculus, establishing the logical framework upon which all applications are built, including the cornerstone theorems of Rolle, the Mean Value Theorem, and Taylor's Theorem.

By the end of this course, you will be able to: explain the derivative from its limit definition; prove the relationship between differentiability and continuity; formally derive all major differentiation rules; and understand the theoretical significance of the Mean Value Theorem and Taylor's Theorem.

This course is designed for first-year undergraduates in mathematics, physics, and engineering who require a deep theoretical foundation for their studies. It is the ideal precursor to subsequent courses on differentiation techniques and applications, providing the essential logical underpinnings for those more practical subjects.


differentiability-and-derivatives-of-functions

This course provides a complete guide to the calculus of several variables. It builds from the foundational concepts of multivariable functions, limits, and continuity to the core techniques of differentiation, including partial derivatives, the chain rule, and implicit differentiation. The material culminates in advanced topics such as Taylor's theorem for several variables and the use of Jacobians.

Multivariable calculus is the language of modern science, engineering, and economics. Its principles are used to model complex surfaces, analyse thermodynamic systems, create 3D computer graphics, and solve critical optimisation problems in business and finance. This is the mathematical toolkit for working with systems that have multiple interacting variables.

By the end of this course, you will be able to calculate partial derivatives, apply the multivariable chain rule, and find directional derivatives using the gradient vector. You will also be able to solve both unconstrained and constrained optimisation problems by finding extreme values and using the method of Lagrange multipliers, and apply these derivatives to find tangent planes to surfaces.

This course is for students who have completed a full single-variable calculus sequence. It is the standard curriculum for a multivariable calculus (Calculus III) module and is a direct prerequisite for the study of vector calculus, differential equations, and advanced courses in physics, engineering, and economics.

This course provides a rigorous introduction to the concept of the limit, the theoretical bedrock upon which all of calculus is built. We will move from an intuitive understanding of what it means for a function to 'approach' a value to the algebraic techniques required for precise evaluation. The course covers the limit laws, methods for handling indeterminate forms, and the behavior of functions at infinity.

Understanding limits is non-negotiable for any serious study of calculus.

limits-of-functions-single-variable-calculus

This course provides a focused and rigorous examination of continuity, a fundamental property of functions that underpins the whole of differential and integral calculus. We move from an intuitive understanding of "unbroken" graphs to the formal, limit-based definition of continuity. The course systematically explores the different types of discontinuities and the powerful theorems that apply only to continuous functions.

A command of continuity is essential for understanding why calculus works. This concept ensures that functions are predictable and well-behaved, a necessary condition for modeling real-world phenomena and for the validity of the major theorems of calculus. It is the bridge between the concept of a limit and the concept of a derivative, explaining why a function must be continuous to be differentiable.

By the end of this course, you will be able to use the three-part definition to test for continuity at a point, identify and classify removable, jump, and infinite discontinuities, and apply the Intermediate Value Theorem and the Extreme Value Theorem to analyse function behavior on a closed interval.

This course is designed for first-year undergraduates in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics who have completed a course on limits. It is a critical prerequisite for the study of differentiability and is essential for any student seeking a deep understanding of calculus theory.
