230

Calculus-based introduction to engineering materials and their mechanical properties, examining strains that occur in elastic bodies subjected to direct and combined stresses, shear and bending moment diagrams, deflections of beams, and stresses due to torsion. Lab testing involves various materials such as cast iron, steel, brass, aluminum, and wood to determine their physical properties and demonstrate various testing techniques. 3 lecture/3 laboratory hours
