Engineering Mechanics Foundations are the beginnings of a series of learning resources produced to provide additional support to students who may not have studied engineering mechanics before coming to University, who have not studied it for a while, or for those who would like to brush up on the basics. The resources are available in both paper format (free to collect from the Maths Learning Support Centre) and in PDF. PDF's can be downloaded from the EngStudent link above or directly from the links below:

General Principles
Introduction to Mechanics
Units and prefixes
Conversion of Units


Dynamics
Newton's 1st law of motion
Newton's 2nd law of motion
Newton's 3rd law of motion
