ENGR 2024 - Mechanics of Materials
3 Credits
Provides a foundation in deformable body mechanics and strength of materials. Topics include: stress, strain, and the relationships between stress and strain. Analysis of bodies subjected to axial, torsional, bending, shear, internal pressure, and combined loadings. Mohr’s circle, beam deflection, stability of structures, and column buckling. Analysis of statically indeterminate structures.
