The objective of this course is to gain a working knowledge and understanding of the
fundamentals of mechanics of materials, and to apply this knowledge to the design or
analysis of simple elastic mechanical members or structures of an engineering nature.
Successfully completing this course, students will be able to:
1. Analyze the stresses and strains in load carrying members due to direct axial tensile
and compressive forces.
2. Determine the torsional shear stress and deformation.
3. Compute the stresses due to bending in beams.
4. Calculate the deflection of beams due to a variety of loading and support conditions
using double integration, moment area and super position method.
5. Analyze stresses in beams under combined axial and flexure loads, eccentric loads
and unsymmetrical bending.
6. Analyze stresses in two dimensions and understand the concepts of principal stresses
and the use of Mohr circles to solve dimensional stress problems.
7. Understand the difference between statically determinate and indeterminate
problems.
8. Compute thermal stresses and deformation.
9. Compute the stress in thin-walled pressure vessels due to internal pressure.
10. Understand the Mohrs circle and failure criteria.
11. Comprehend the strain energy and related concepts.
