Before we can talk about ways of describing the fundamental quantities of position, velocity and acceleration - we need to define them. You can also watch Particle Position Velocity and Acceleration on MyMedia

Define what we mean by Particles and Rigid Bodies, Vector fundamentals, Dimensions (English Engineering, British Gravitational and SI) and Dimensional Consistency. You can also watch Some Fundamental Definitions Units Particles Rigid Bodies, Vectors and Dimensional Consistency on MyMedia.

An introduction to the course - primarily for University of Toronto students - that discusses what is expected and the delivery method.

Dynamics is a challenging course, particularly in the first year curriculum. We cover particle and rigid body kinetics and kinematics as well as vibration. On top of learning this new material, students have midterms and projects due in other courses that distract from keeping up with material. This project encompasses all material covered in MIE100 – and will be expanded as time allows to update learning goals.

This course introduces quality control techniques applicable in various engineering settings. These techniques are widely used in monitoring and improving the quality of both products and services. Topics include process quality inferences, statistical process control, various control charts, system capability analysis, design of experiments, and acceptance sampling. Various simulation models will be used to represent and generate data sets in various settings, for analysis and charting with widely available software.

This MOOC ran on Coursera in October 2014. While it is not available currently, we are hoping to offer it in On Demand format as of Spring 2017.

Alternative Energy Systems is offered to graduate students completely online, minus the mid-term and final exam. The course has been offered online for over five years and undergoes a process of continuous improvement and update. The online course is administered through the University of Toronto's learning management system, Portal (Blackboard). The learning outcomes and learning objectives of the online version of this course are identical to the in-class experience.
