Course Description

Properties of structural materials; analysis of stress and deformation in axially loaded members, circular shafts, and beams, and in statically indeterminate systems containing these components.

Topics

  • Definitions of stress and strain
  • Stress, strain, and deformation of axially loaded bars and torsionally loaded shafts
  • Distributed loads
  • Statically indeterminate problems
  • Stress & strain components and transformations
  • Pressure vessels
  • Linear elastic constitutive equations
  • Shear and moment diagrams
  • Bending and transverse shear stress
  • Combined loading
  • Beam deflection
  • Column buckling

Learning Outcomes

The student, upon completion of this course, will be able to:

  • Students are able to calculate stress, strain, and deformation for basic geometries subjected to axial, torsional, bending, and transverse loading.
  • Students can identify a statically indeterminate problem and solve such a problem for axial loading.
  • Students are able to calculate maximum and minimum normal and shear stresses and the orientations at which they occur for an arbitrary two-dimensional stress / strain state.
  • Students are able to draw shear and moment diagrams and write beam equilibrium equations.
  • Students are able to calculate the deflection of a simply supported beam.
