EG202

Mechanics of Materials I

Course DirectorySNHU EG202 has 4 direct prerequisites, with 11 courses in its complete prerequisite tree, and is required by 4 other courses.

Undergraduate · 3 credits

This course enhances the students understanding of stress and strain, and their linear-elastic relationship through Hooke's Law. The stress induced in simple beams and columns, as subjected to axial, torsional, bending, and shear loading, is extensively covered. The concept of state of plane-stress, as a result of combined loadings (superposition), and transformation to principal components, is covered. Based on allowable stress, basic beam design is introduced. Methods to determine the deformation of beams and shafts are covered. The concepts are supported by software-based stress analysis and the application of computational software in structural design.
