Advanced Mechanics of Materials

Catalog description

This course is designed to be taken concurrently with EGR 254 Mechanics of Materials and Structures and cover complex analysis techniques. Advanced mechanical properties of materials and stress, strain, bending and torsion concepts will be utilized to solve problems associated with beam, shaft and column design. The use of stress and strain transformation to determine maximum normal and shear stress and predict the failure of a material will be discussed. Prerequisite: EGR 253. Pre or co-requisite: EGR 254.
