mechanics

EM

Assuming macroscopic mechanics, electromagnetism is much harder.

Mechanics. It only really works in heavy handed approximations

If Fluids are included into Mechanics, then Mechanics.

There's fluid in electromagnetism as well.

Electromagnetism by far

Oh wow, so electromagnetism IS hard.
Thanks now I feel less stupid.

electromagnetism
after dynamics mechanics is mostly reusing shit you've learned

Roughly equivalent. Multibody dynamics can be surprisingly complicated. As of yet, there is no generic method for figuring out the mobility of 3 dimensional linkages with spherical joints.

As far as schooling goes EM was way harder than mechanics

You can pretty much make either one arbitrarily difficult. If you just mean an introductory course in either then probably EM.

Mechatronics

The combination of both, as they are well known to be used along side one another.

they are both easy, but electromagnetics is slightly less easy

Combining the two

magnetohydrodynamics w/ thermal convection

Vibrations and Waves

Strength of materials, also called mechanics of materials region where your nerves die, user. But electronics have radio-electronics theory. So... touche i suppose.

> assume linear stress-strain relation
it's not too bad desu

> calculating the plastic region
why?!?

I thought the was the whole point of Kane's dynamical theory?
