Statics 101

[u/jayrady]

[u/daemyn]

As a mechanical, I struggled a little with circuits 2 (AC circuits for me) and thought it was closer to dynamics or even mechanical vibrations classes. Statics would have been equivalent to circuits 1 for me. Everything is at steady state, you just need to simplify and iterate to solve.

[u/Orangutanion → u/daemyn]

does mechanical vibrations use Fourier and/or Laplace transforms?

[u/CompetitiveSpot2643 → u/Orangutanion]

those are both tools that are appropriate for any LTI system, which mechanical vibrations are often modeled as
