MAE 191 — Statics & Strength of Material
This course presents a theoretical, analytical, and practical approach to the concept of engineering statics and strength of materials--the foundations of machine and structural design. Students will develop basic knowledge and skills in critical thinking and engineering problem solving. Topics include: force and moment analysis, conditions for static equilibrium, properties of materials, stress-strain relationships, thermal stresses, geometric shapes and moments of inertia, and beam analysis.
