  • MECH 2501: Mechanics of Materials Lab

    3.00 Credits
    SUNY College of Technology at Alfred

    This is a lab course to supplement MECH 2503, Mechanics of Materials. It is a required co-requisite with MECH 2503 for several Mechanical Engineering Technology curricula and highly recommended (but not required) for all others. The emphasis of the course is on materials testing and the resulting technical reports. Tests covered include the tensile and compression tests of various materials, as well as torsion test and fatigue test. There are also exercises in measurement and calculation to verify important relationships developed in MECH 2503, such as Moment of Inertia and stresses developed in members under load.

  • MECH 2503: Mechanics of Materials

    3.00 Credits
    SUNY College of Technology at Alfred

    A basic study of strength and rigidity of mechanical elements in tension, compression, shear and bending. Students will encounter and solve mechanical design problems involving stress and deflection of tension compression and direct shear members, shafts in torsion, beams in bending, and columns in compressive buckling. This course will also include the study of stress on connections such as weldments, riveted elements and bolted elements and the effect of stess concentration. The importance of basic design concepts such as stress, strain, deflections, elastic moduli, yield strength, ultimate strength, stiffness and safety factor are explored.
