Prerequisite

CHEM-1309, ENGR-2301

Outcomes

  1. Relate stress and strain through Hooke’s law for ductile and brittle materials.
  2. Calculate stress, strain and deflection in statically determinate and indeterminate members subject to axial, bending, torsional, thermal, and pressure loads, both individually and in combination.
  3. Apply the principle of superposition.
  4. Transform stresses and strains from one coordinate system to another.
  5. Design beams and shafts.
  6. Determine the critical buckling loads of columns.
