Mechanics is the study of motion (or equilibrium) of matter and the forces that cause such motion (or equilibrium). Mechanics is based on the concepts of time, space, force, energy, and matter. Examples of previous knowledge of mechanics are courses in statics, dynamics, mechanics (or strength) of materials, fluid mechanics, elasticity, plasticity, and fracture mechanics.

Abstract: Mechanics is the study of motion (or equilibrium) of matter and the forces that cause such motion (or equilibrium). Mechanics is based on the concepts of time, space, force, energy, and matter. Examples of previous knowledge of mechanics are courses in statics, dynamics, mechanics (or strength) of materials, fluid mechanics, elasticity, plasticity, and fracture mechanics. Mechanical engineers are called as such because they study mechanics and design using mechanics concepts and principles
