Abstract:
This course provides students with practical experience in testing and calculating of mechanical properties of materials.
Using various measurement equipment, the students apply topics learned in Material Science courses 1&2, and Strength of materials
1 about responses of materials to different types of mechanical loading and heat-treatments.
The students acquire knowledge of operating standard engineering
measurement equipment and deepen their understanding of material properties.Abstract:
This course is designed to provide students with concepts in measuring systems, transducers and measuring devices, data logging systems, calibrations, thermal experiments, environmental conditions experiments.Abstract:
The student will acquire the basic design tools, be familiar with professional terminology, and be able to determine specifications for the standard design of accepted machine parts.
The course covers advanced topics, including problems of power transmission by various means, calculation and selection of clutches and brakes, spring design, and choice of tolerances.
The course includes detailed calculations of flat and V-belt transmissions, as well as their selection from categories of drives. It also covers strength calculations of gears according to bending and crushing criteria, and calculations of various parameters for clutches and brakes.
During the course, students will carry out a project in the field of mechanical design.Abstract:
The course will present mathematical models for analyzing and solving problems in elasticity, while integrating theoretical tools and calculation methods.
Main course topics:
1. Basic definitions in solid mechanics – stresses and strains, displacements and stresses.
2. Fundamental equations and laws – equilibrium equations, kinematic equations (displacement–stress relations), constitutive equations, and compatibility equations (Saint-Venant equations).
3. Algorithms and formulations for solving elastic problems – formulation using stresses: Beltrami–Michell equations, formulation using displacements: Navier–Lam? equations.
4. The two-dimensional (plane) model – equations for the two-dimensional case, Airy f?unction, application of the Airy f?unction in solving select plane problems.
