Analisamos a importância da ciência da mecânica para o desenvolvimento das técnicas e das ciências naturais em geral, com o pressuposto de que todos os fenômenos naturais são manifestações do movimento. Como elemento do método de análise, discutimos alguns problemas abordados pela via mecânica e fazemos um estudo de aspectos metodológicos das mecânicas clássica e quântica. Em alguns casos, como a descoberta de Netuno e  a redução do fenômeno da mutação genética a um problema mecânico, detalhamos a análise a partir dos textos originais; procedimento que se mostra revelador às conclusões do ensaio. Depreende-se da análise  o impacto estratégico da mecânica sobre odesenvolvimento das técnicas e as implicações na formulação das ciências fenomenológicas. 

Palavras chave: bases da mecânica; desenvolvimento das técnicas; mecânica clássica; mecânica quântica.

 

Abstract

We analyze the importance of the Mechanics Science for the development of technics and the natural science, considering that all natural phenomena are manifestation of the motion, which is described by causal laws (equations of motions) among different configurations of the state of mechanical systems. As a methodological element for the analysis, we discuss some problems described by the mechanical way and carry out a study about the methodological foundations of classical and quantum mechanics. In some cases, as the discovery of Neptune and the reduction of the genetics mutation to a mechanical problem, we detail the analysis from the original works; a procedure that reveals basic achievements in this essay. For instance, we estimate the strategic impact of Mechanics on the development of the technics and the implications for the phenomenological formulations of sciences.

Keywords:  bases of mechanics; developments of technics; classicalmechanics; quantum mechanics.
