Courses taught by Prof. Vladimir Aslanov

Modern problems of mechanics
The course introduces students to the modern state of mechanics as a science. It forms the skills of using modern methods of theoretical mechanics in the framework of fundamental and applied problems, as well as the skills of independent scientific research in the field of mechanics and the interpretation of the results.

Elements of orbital mechanics
The basics and methods of celestial mechanics, the laws of the motion of celestial bodies, the elements of the orbit, the methods of determining orbits from observations, the types of motion of planets, satellites, asteroids, comets, the basics of the theory of motion of artificial satellites of the Earth are studied in this course.

Analytical mechanics
Analytical mechanics is a section of theoretical mechanics in which the general principles of mechanics are formulated, equations of motion and methods for their integration are derived and investigated on their basis. The Lagrange, Hamilton, Raus, Appell, Whittaker, Jacobi equations are studied.

Introduction to mechanics
The course introduces students to the program of bachelor “Mechanics and Mathematical Modeling”, with the history of development and modern areas of research in the field of mathematics and mechanics, the structure of the Samara University, the organization of the educational process at the university and the University’s research in the field of mathematics and mechanics.
