ENGR 01273Strength of Materials

Catalog

The course presents the theory and analytical techniques used in the design and analysis of engineered structural components. The course addresses the principles of stress and strain, mechanical properties of materials, and beam and bar analysis. The study of structural components includes axial forces, torsion, bending, shear, combined loading, buckling, and design. Concepts such as principal stresses, Hooke's Law for plane stress, and failure criteria are introduced.
