ENG 240 Mechanics of Materials 4 credits
This course is an engineering study of mechanics of deformable bodies/strength of materials. The course includes analysis of the elastic and inelastic relationships between external forces acting on engineering structures and the stresses and deformations produced; tension and compression members; members subjected to torsion and bending; buckling (columns) combined stresses; repeated loads (fatigue); energy loads and impact; and influences of the properties of materials.
