CE364 | MECHANICS OF MATERIALS | 2006 | 1 | Civil and Mechanical Engineering | 3.5 (BS=0.0, ET=3.5, MA=0.0) | ||||
SCOPE | |||||||||
This course studies the behavior of a variety of materials under normal, shear, torsional, bending and combined loads. The concepts of stress, strain, creep, corrosion, fatigue and material properties are explored. The course examines observed behavior in light of the relationships between the microscopic structure and macroscopic properties of materials used in engineering applications. The loading, geometry, functional environment and material properties of machine or structural parts are used to relate the forces applied to a body to the resulting internal forces and deformations so that performance can be evaluated. Practical applications involving the design and adequacy of mechanical and structural elements under various loading and environmental conditions are emphasized. | |||||||||

SCOPE | |||||||||
This course studies the behavior of deformable bodies under axial, torsional, flexural, and combined loading. The concepts of stress, strain, and material properties are introduced and are used to relate external forces applied to a body to the resulting internal forces and deformations so that performance can be evaluated. Practical applications involving the design and adequacy of mechanical and structural elements under various loading conditions are emphasized. | |||||||||
