Mechanics and Materials II: Course Description
'Mechanics and Material II' is a free course that is taught by Professors Lallit Anand and David Parks from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology Department of Mechanical Engineering. This OpenCourseWare focuses on the reactions of solid materials, including conductors, semiconductors, metals and polymers, once they are subjected to mechanical and thermal loading. The instructors review the physical mechanisms commonly linked to design-limiting characteristics, such as durability, strength, stiffness and toughness. Other topics covered in the class include the properties of solid engineering materials, methods for describing engineering and selecting, and the best methods for testing and analyzing solid engineering materials. Lecture topics will provide insights into commonly used equations and applications of mechanics, including the linear elastic beam theory, slice equilibrium relations, Euler-Bernoulli beam theory and Euler-Bernoulli beam vibration. Some other lecture topics include uses of engineering polymers, ideal shear strengths and the application of limit analysis.
Materials for this OpenCourseWare include lecture notes, labs, assignments, exams and a reading list. If you are interested in taking this course, visit the mechanics and materials course page.
