ENR-270 Strength of Materials


The course extends the equilibrium analysis covered in statics to deformable bodies, especially to various members that make up structures and machines. Students will learn the three fundamental concepts in this course, i.e. Equilibrium, Force-Temperature-Deformation Behavior of Materials, and Geometry of Deformation. The course includes the following concepts: stress and strain, stress transformation, temperature stresses, stress and deformation in bodies under axial, shearing, flexural, torsional and combined loadings, shear and bending moment diagrams, and Euler’s columns.
Class Meets 3 hour lecture.
