    3 hours lecture Prerequisites: EGR 242, 301, consent of instructor Lagrangian method of determining a system’s equations of motion. Normal modes and normal coordinates are introduced and the finite element method is used to find natural frequencies and mode shapes.& Free vibration of continuous systems is considered and techniques for finding natural frequencies are developed. Steady-state and transient responses of one degree of freedom systems are treated extensively, and the forced response& of multi-degree of freedom systems is discussed. The forced systems are also modeled using the finite element method.

    3 hours lecture Prerequisites: MNE 252, EGR 301, MTH 211 or MTH 213 After reviewing the development of the flexure formula, the stress equation is derived for unsymmetrical bending. Curved beams loaded in the plane of curvature are analyzed as are beams with combined axial and lateral loadings. The general equation for beams on elastic foundations and its applications are studied. Stresses and deflections due to dynamic loads are examined. The basic equations of elasticity are developed and two-dimensional problems analyzed using Airy’s stress function. Solutions are compared to strength of materials results. Energy methods are discussed. The Lagrange plate equation is derived and plates fabricated from modern composite materials are discussed.

    The course is divided into two major parts. The first part of the course deals with theory and practice of photo-elastic methods applied to classical experimental stress analysis of models and are modified for use in photoelastic coatings. Three-dimensional problems are studied and solved by the use of the digital computer. Emphasis is on the interpretation, limitations and designing by photo-elasticity. The second part of the course presents the theory and application of mechanical and electrical strain gauges, and brittle coatings, Installation, instrumentation and circuitry of gauge set-ups or transducer use in experimental stress analysis are discussed.
