Students can calculate direct stress due and deflections resulting from axial loads. Students can calculate direct shear stress. Students understand the relationships between Modulus of Elasticity, Poisson's ratio, and shear modulus, and the effect that they have on the deformation of mechanical parts subjected to various loads. Students can calculate torsional stresses and deflections within circular shafts. Students can construct Shear and Moment Diagrams.
Students can calculate the deflection of beams.
Students can calculate stresses caused by loading that produce a combination of axial and bending stresses. Students can calculate the allowable load in long and short columns. Tentative Course Outline 1. Mechanical properties of materials 2. Deformation and thermal stresses 4.
