Lehrinhalte
A basic introduction into civil-engineering-related physics topics. A special
emphasis is put on areas of physics not covered by other courses such as
technical mechanics:

1. Units in physics
2. Thermodynamics
3. Transport
4. Classical interactions: gravity, electricity, magnetism
5. Oscillations and waves
6. Basics of optics
7. Basics of electronics

The lecture is offered as a 4-hour course with live experiments during 3/4 of the term. In addition to the lecture course, extended execises (Übungen) with problem-solving and exam-preparation is offered.

Zusätzliche Informationen
To apply for participation in exercice groups to receive the 'Studienleistung', please register in TUCaN until Friday, 23.04.2021 23:59.
In case you have already acquired the 'Studienleistung' in previous years, it is still desirable that you participate in the excercies. Here you can also gain a Bonus for the 'Klausur'. To do so, you also have to apply for participation until Friday, 23.04.2021 23:59 but since you will not be able to register directly in TUCaN, contact[b] [/b][b]studienbuero@bauing.tu-darmstadt.de[/b] and let them know in which group you want to be subscribed.
 

Additional Information
Further information as well as presentations and excercises will be available through moodle.
