MS 251 - Mechanics of Materials

Institution:

Alfred University

Subject:

Description:

3 hours. Successfully completing this course enables students to understand the nature of forces acing on objects and to calculate the stresses and strains generated by those forces in simple situations. Situations include classic beam loading as well as more materials-oriented cases such as stresses in dams and reinforced materials (e.g., concrete, composites). Courses of Instruction: New York State College of Ceramics 279 Applications to engineering design and to mechanical testing of materials are demonstrated. Students learn to calculate the variations of stress and strain using Mohr's circle method. Prerequisite: PHYS 125. CE
