    Description
    Lecture 2 hours: Lab 3 hours In this course, students learn the application of mechanics to determine the effect of forces and torques on materials. Students apply this knowledge to the design of load bearing components. The course covers the following topics: Stress, strain, axial loading, torsion, flexural stresses, transverse shear stress, horizontal shear stresses, stress transformations, Mohr's circle, pressure vessels, shear and bending moment diagrams, stresses in a beam, methods of superposition, and elastic strain energy.
