ETG3533 Engineering Strength of Materials

This course covers the relationship between external forces and the reactions of the members of a structure. It focuses on the determination of internal stresses due to applied loads on structures. Topics include normal, bending, and thermal stresses; axial deformations; angle of twist; and flexural deformations. Other topics include shear and moment diagrams, deflections, beams, columns, and Mohr's circle. Lab activities include pressure vessels, stress concentration computation, virtual demonstrations of deformations and stress under loading, and shear and moment diagrams.
