ENGR5850 — Advanced Mechanics of Materials
ENGR 5850 - Advanced Mechanics of Materials ENGR 5850 - Advanced Mechanics of Materials 3 credits (Hrs: 3 Lec.) Considers advanced strength topics and reviews elementary strength of materials. Topics considered are beam deflections, statically indeterminate beams, fatigue, two and three dimensional Mohr’s circle stress problems, advanced beam topics (shear center, unsymmetrical bending, curved flexural members, beams on elastic foundations, nonlinear stress-strain diagrams), advanced torsion problems, thickwalled pressure vessels, rotating disks, contact stresses and stress concentrations, elastic and geometric stability. Course generally 2nd semester of odd numbered years.
