3 credits
Covers the principles involved in the analysis of stresses in machine and structural elements under various types of loads. Analyzes these stresses in thin-walled cylinders and spheres, riveted and welded joints, beams, columns, cast sections, couplings, and shafts. The laboratory portion investigates material strength and the intelligent use of existing references. In the lab, students work in small groups to conduct their own measurements of the mechanical properties of common materials. Uses microcomputers to analyze experimental data and prepare final reports. Lecture Hours: 2 Lab Hours: 3
Prerequisite(s): MEC* 104 . Corequisite(s): MAT* 175 .
