Module Objectives

أهداف المادة الدراسية

 

  1. To provide the basic concepts and principles of strength of materials.
  2. To give the ability to apply the knowledge of the strength of materials to engineering applications and design problems
  3. Understand the concepts of linear elasticity, including Hooke's Law and Poisson's Ratio.
  4. Be able to define normal and shear stresses and calculate their values for members with known external axial and lateral forces, torques, and bending moments.
  5. Be able to define normal and shear strains including the axial deformation and thermal stress and calculate their values for members with known stresses.
  6. Develop the capability to check and verify the safety and design requirements for a cylindrical pressure vessel, tank, and pipe.
  7. Determine the deflection at any point of a prismatic beam, given the simple loading and end (boundary) condition.
  8. Determine the load, shear and moment diagrams for a beam given the loading and end conditions.
  9. Understand the stress and strain at different planes for a stressed body in a two-dimensional space by using Mohr’s circle concept.

Module Learning Outcomes

 

مخرجات التعلم للمادة الدراسية

Students who successfully complete this course will have demonstrated an ability to:

  1. Understand the concepts of stress and strain at a point as well as the stress-strain relationships for homogenous isotropic materials.
  2. Calculate the stresses and strains in axially-loaded members, circular torsion members, and members subject to flexural loadings.
  3. Calculate the stresses and strains associated with thin-wall spherical and cylindrical pressure vessels.
  4. Determine the stresses and strains in members subjected to combined loading.
  5. Determine and illustrate principal stresses, maximum shearing stress, and the stresses acting on a structural member.
  6. Analyze slender, long columns subjected to axial loads.
  7. Determine the deflections and rotations produced by the three fundamental types of loads: axial, torsional, and flexural.

Learning and Teaching Strategies

استراتيجيات التعلم والتعليم

Strategies

This module will be delivered with a strategy that encourages students to participate in the discussion, exercises solving, and at the same time refining and expanding their critical thinking skills. This will be achieved through classes, interactive discussions and by considering types of simple projects involving some interesting sampling activities for the students.

Note: Marks Decimal places above or below 0.5 will be rounded to the higher or lower full mark (for example a mark of 54.5 will be rounded to 55, whereas a mark of 54.4 will be rounded to 54. The University has a policy NOT to condone "near-pass fails" so the only adjustment to marks awarded by the original marker(s) will be the automatic rounding outlined above.
