Lecture
Methodology of Mechanics
Description
This lecture covers the conceptual modeling of physical phenomena, mathematical transcription of physical models, application of physical laws, system of equations solving, model and theory limitations, problem-solving skills development, systematic approach adoption, mathematical tools mastery, and the historical evolution of classical mechanics from the 17th to the 20th century, including the theories of chaos, relativity, and quantum mechanics. It also emphasizes the importance of experiments in describing physical phenomena, symbolically questioning nature, methodologically transitioning from reality to models, and didactically linking teaching to daily life and scientific curiosity.
