MST 110 - Introduction to Mechanical Behavior of Materials

Institution:

University of New Mexico-Los Alamos Campus

Subject:

Description:

Origin of mechanical properties of metals and polymers and the concepts are used to explain how various methods are used to strengthen materials. Property measurement and data interpretation. This course is designed to introduce the student to the basic mechanical behavior of metals and polymers. The origin of mechanical properties in engineering materials is discussed from a fundamental viewpoint and the concepts are used to explain how various methods used to strengthen materials actually work. Properties such as tensile strength, ductility, elastic modulus, hardness, fatigue life, and toughness are covered in this seminar. Prerequisite: MATH 123
