Everything from individual particles to the tallest buildings to a rushing river experiences forces
and torques. Each object—liquid or solid, large or small-- responds differently under different
conditions. Engineering mechanics examines these external forces by studying statics,
dynamics, materials strength, elasticity, viscoelasticity and fluid dynamics.
As a bridge between theory and application, engineering mechanics is used formulate new
ideas and theories, discover and interpret phenomena, and develop experimental and
computational tools. Faculty in the Department of Civil Engineering at the Case School of
Engineering are conducting research in engineering mechanics for a of a wide variety of fields,
including the aerospace, electronics, automotive, manufacturing, software, and computer
industries.
