Course Objectives | The aim of this course is to provide the students with the basic knowledge of mechanics of deformable bodies. |
Learning Outcomes | The students who succeeded in this course;
|
Course Description | In this course, the mechanics of deformable bodies and the stress that occurs due to the external loadings is defined. The calculation of stresses for different loading effects, the internal force diagrams of beams will be defined. The definition of axial loading, bending, shear, torsion, and combined loading effects is examined. |
