Course description and aims

This course aims to teach students of non-mechanical engineering course basics of strength of materials to learn how to consider problems from the mechanical perspective. Topics include mechanical properties, stress and complicated stress, bending, twisting, strain energy, impact loading, buckling, stress concentration, plastic deformation and creep, fatigue and fracture, and nondestructive testing methods.

Student learning outcomes

By the end of this course, students will:
1. be able to explain the mechanical properties of materials
2. be able to calculate stress, strain, and deformation by external forces and moments
3. be able to explain mechanical behavior of materials which are necessary to design, produce, and maintain machines

Keywords

stress, strain, moment

Competencies that will be developed

Specialist skills Intercultural skills Communication skills ✔ Critical thinking skills Practical and/or problem-solving skills
✔ ・Applied specialist skills on EEE

Class flow

Towards the end of class, students are given exercise problems related to what is taught on that day to solve.

Course schedule/Required learning

  Course schedule Required learning
Class 1 Stress and strain Understanding the roles of mechanics of materials, and explain what is stress and strain.
Class 2 Mechanical properties, allowable stress and safety factor Understand fundamental mechanical properties, allowable stress and safety factor.
Class 3 Tension ,compression and thermal stress Calculate stress, strain, and elongation in tension and compression of bar.

Class 6 Deflection of beam Calculate deflection of beam based on the bending stress.
Class 7 Material strength and fracture Understand material strength and fracture

Out-of-Class Study Time (Preparation and Review)

To enhance effective learning, students are encouraged to spend approximately 100 minutes preparing for class and another 100 minutes reviewing class content afterwards (including assignments) for each class.
They should do so by referring to textbooks and other course material.
