Strength of Materials I

Base Knowledge

Students begin to learn the basic knowledge of tension, stress state. Normal stresses due to the effect of axial forces. Tangential stresses due to torsion. Normal stresses due to the effect of the bending moment. Notion of pure cut.

Teaching Methodologies

In the lectures is made a theoretical each subject that is complemented by the presentation of exercises. Theorial and practical classes are focuses mainly in solving exercises. There is a laboratory component in which practical problems are solved.

Learning Results

The aim of course is to provide students with simple and practical methods for the calculation of the typical elements common structures and are used for various processes approximate calculation. This course contributes to the following competencies: Understand the concepts and procedures involved in selecting and sizing machines bodies and structural elements and know design mechanical components and trussed structures.
