Strength of Materials ((3 Credits))

Catalog description

This calculus based course for Engineering students covers stresses and deformation in structural members due to axial, tensile and compressive loads, torsional loads on shafts and bending and shear loads on beams. Also included is the study of the basic design of structural members based on the analysis of stress, the deformation, and an understanding of the mechanical behavior of materials under various load conditions.
