Basic Concepts of Mechanics of Materials for Machine Design

About this course

Mechanics of Materials is the primary course for  mechanical engineering and is used in the design of structures and machines. A thorough understanding of the foundational concepts of the subject is important to for mechanical design whether it be designing a single structure which has to take loads or whether it is designing an elaborate Transmission systems which is undergoing dynamic loading conditions.  Mechanics of materials concepts are cornerstone of any type of mechanical design .In this course we will be covering the following concepts :Introduction to Machine design - What is nature of machine design ? What does it include ? What is the engineering design process?Importance of analysis of strength and difference between strength and stressEssential basics of engineering statics - Method of statics, Free body diagrams, Force equilibrium , types of joints primary types of loading- Normal and shear What is Bearing stressExplanation of Stress and strain relations with Tensile test and its inferences along with definitions of tensile strength , yield strength .Hookes lawShear Stress strain relations and Shear stress in Shafts undergoing action of torque- Torsion. What is Poissons' Ratio Analysis of Axially loaded member and what is stress concentrationAnalysis of Stress in Oblique plane for axially loaded memberWhat is Pure bending ?
