ERG 225 — Strength of Materials
This course emphasizes stress and strain and the mechanical properties of materials. Topics include axial load, torsion, bending and deflection of beams, Hooke's Law, Mohr's circle, transfer shear, combined loading, stress, strain transformation, design of beams, and buckling of columns. Students use integral and differential equations to solve problems in design of beams and structures.
