Mechanics and bionics

Contents:

• Forces (effects, measurement, Hooke's law, statics, dynamics, adhesion and friction, pressure, buoyancy, gravity). Center of gravity, resistance and moments of inertia.
• Motion (general, uniform, accelerated, curved, uniform circulation).
• Kinetics, kinematics, oscillation.
• Lever mechanisms.
• Work and energy (work, power, kinetic, potential, elastic energy, mechanical energy theorem) Momentum (definition, conservation, momentum theorem)
• Fluid mechanics (fluid statics, surface tension, movement in liquids - use of water channels to determine the kinematics and dynamics of the movement of aquatic organisms, "biologically modeled propulsion" taking into account the law of similarity, use of modern measurement procedures, laser, Doppler anemometry).
