Undergraduate Academic Studies	Technical Mechanics and Technical Design (Godina: 2, Winter)

General information:

Category	Theoretical-methodological
Scientific or art field	Deformable Body Mechanics
Interdisciplinary	Yes
ECTS	9

Educational goal:

Enabling students to analyse stresses and deformations occurring in structural elements, as well as to solve statically determinate and indeterminate problems. Dimensioning of structural elements.

Educational outcome:

The acquired knowledge enables students to recognize and analyse stress conditions and deformations for elastic bodies on whose basis they can perform the dimensioning of elements. Students are capable to individually solve problems in the field of strength of materials, both in the field of advanced courses at the faculty and in the engineering practice.

Course content:

Main tasks in strength of materials. Cross section method. Cauchy-Euler hypothesis. Stress matrix. Deformation measures. Axially loaded pole: statically determinate and statically indeterminate. Torsion of circular cross-section poles: stress and strain. Pole bending: normal stresses. Bending deformations: elastic line. Method of deformation work. Pole stability, critical buckling force. Hypothesis on failure. Contemporary materials in engineering: high elastic, pseudo-elastic and memory materials.

Teaching methods:

Lectures. Auditory practice. Consultations. In lectures, the theoretical part of the course content is presented and complemented by characteristic examples. In practice, additional tasks are completed to broaden the lecture content. Regularly, in previously determined terms, consultations are held every week. Course content is divided into three modules: first module (axially loaded pole, torsion) and second module (bending) and third module (buckling, deformation work) which are all passed separately. If one does not take modules to pass, they can take written examination which is eliminatory.
