Pre-Requisites: Strength of Materials - I

Course Objectives: The objective of this Course is

  • To understand the nature of stresses developed in simple geometries shafts, springs, columns &cylindrical and spherical shells for various types of simple loads
  • To calculate the stability and elastic deformation occurring in various simple geometries for different types of loading.
  • To understand the unsymmetrical bending and shear center importance for equilibrium conditions in a structural member of having different axis of symmetry.

Course Outcome: On completion of the course, the student will be able to:

  • Describe the concepts and principles, understand the theory of elasticity, and perform calculations, relative to the strength of structures and mechanical components in particular to torsion and direct compression;
  • To evaluate the strains and deformation that will result due to the elastic stresses developed within the materials for simple types of loading
  • Analyze strength and stability of structural members subjected to Direct, and Direct and Bending stresses;
  • Understand and evaluate the shear center and unsymmetrical bending.
  • Frame an idea to design a system, component, or process
