OBJECTIVES AND CONTENTS

Objectives of the Course Unit: Part of the strength of work course is based on learning the basic concepts and simplified models, which will enable the development of a schema and logical framework of all the necessary formulas and under what conditions they can be applied to the analysis and design of real engineering structures and machine parts.
Contents of the Course Unit: This course is designed for engineering students as a first course in the mechanics of materials or the strength of objects. It provides information in the form of an introduction to the mechanics of deformable objects.
