MET 2630 — MET-2630 Engineering Strength of Materials
Course designed for students planning to transfer to a 4-year engineering program. Focused on fundamental principles and methods of solid mechanics and their applications. Topics covered include normal, shear, torsional, and thermal stress-strain analysis; generalized Hook's law; bending moment and shear force diagrams; transformation of stress-strain and principle stresses; Mohr's circle for plane stress; state of stress in three-dimension; stress due to combined loading; deflection of beams; plane stress in thin-walled members; strain measurements; analysis of columns; and design principles based on mechanics of solids.
