CES Mechanics I
General
- Syllabus (class times, outline) • Campus entry
The written exam covering CES Mechanics I-II for summer semester will be on September 1, 2009 in room 1820|201 (Fo1), 13:00–16:30. The exam itself will be 3 hours long.
A new sequence of Mechanics courses has become a part of CES curriculum starting in 2005. The CES Mechanics I and II are taught by CATS, and CES Mechanics III, i.e., Deformable Body Mechanics, is taught by Lehr- und Forschungsgebiet Kontinuumsmechanik (Prof. Itskov).
Repeat Exam WS 2008/9
The schedule of the winter semester repeat examen was as follows:
- 2009.03.06 exam 09.00–12.00 in room 1010|141 (previously IV)
- 2009.03.12 posting of exam solutions and results
- 2008.03.13 inspection (Einsicht) 10.30 - 12.00h in Steinbachstr.53B, first floor, room 108.2
- 2009.03.20-27 oral exams (by appointment)
- an English and German version of the formula sheets formula (Formeln) will be given out during the exam
