Engineering Materials Material and Solid Mechanics Laboratory

Catalog description

Application of laboratory techniques for metallurgical analysis and the evaluation of the resistance of materials. It includes the preparation, handling and microstructural analysis of materials, hardness tests and heat treatments. Use of experimental methods for the calculation of stresses and deformations. Emphasis is given to testing for impact, tension, torsion, beam bending, column buckling, and column deflections under eccentric loading. It requires 45 laboratory hours.
