Job summary
Prerequisites: ENGG 1201, MATH 1003, and MATH 150 Co-requisite: MATH 10 The fundamental concepts of forces, moments, and vector analysis are introduced and applied to the motion of particles and rigid bodies. Free body diagrams (FBDs) and Newton's three laws of motion are used to understand the dynamics of particle motion along straight and curved paths. Coriolis acceleration. Work and kinetic energy, linear and angular impulse, and linear and angular momentum. Rotation of a rigid body about a fixed axis. Additional topics include centroids, centres of gravity, and moments of inertia (area and mass). The course topics focus on visualizing the concepts of motion and developing problem-solving techniques. Prerequisites: ENGG 1201, MATH 1003, and MATH 150 Co-requisite: MATH 10 Masters degree in Engineering or Science and/or related experience. Preference will be given to candidates who have obtained a P. Eng. or who are eligible to do so. Position is subject to final budgetary approval and may be subject to minimum enrolment. https://www.unb.ca/hr/labourrelations/index.html Applicants who are graduate students please submit the Part Time Employment Form with sections 1 and 2 completed with your application package. https://www.unb.ca/gradstudies/_assets/pdfs/part_time_empl_graduate.pdf There may be Right of First Refusal (RoFR) holders for this course.
