Theoretical Mechanics is a theoretical fundamental course for engineering specialties. This course is intended to provide students with a clear and thorough picture of both the theory and application of the principles in theoretical mechanics. Theoretical mechanics includes three parts: statics, kinematics and kinetics, which mainly studies the general laws of equilibrium or motion of rigid bodies.  This course will provide the necessary mechanics knowledge for the follow-up course studies in engineering specialties. After the study of this course, students are expected to be able to use the basic concepts and theories of mechanics to analyze and solve simple problems in engineering application. Another goal of this course is to effectively train students' logic thinking skills and improve their comprehensive quality.

理论力学是工科专业的一门理论性较强的基础课程，课程旨在让学生全面而清晰地了解理论力学中各原理及其应用。其中理论力学包括静力学、运动学和动力学三部分，主要研究刚体（系）在平衡和运动时的一般规律。本课程将为工科专业后续课程学习提供必要的力学基础知识，学生通过本课程的学习可以运用力学的基本概念和理论，分析处理简单的工程实际问题，同时学习该课程还可以有效地培养学生的逻辑思维能力，促进学生综合素质的全面提高。

The course grade (totally 100 points) will be based on  final exam (60%)、homework（20%）、the unit tests (15%), and discussion participation (5%). There will be one unit test every chapter. All tests and the final exam consist of true-false, single choice and multiple choice questions.

本课程总成绩（满分100分）包括期末考试（60%）、作业（20%）、单元测验（15%）和课程讨论（5%）三部分。每章一个单元测验，单元测验及期末考试包含是非、单选和多选题。
