Mechanics of Materials I: Fundamentals of Stress & Strain and Axial Loading

Thomas Grant 5 years ago 0 17

About the MOOC

This course explores the topic of solid objects subjected to stress and strain. The methods taught in the course are used to predict the response of engineering structures to various types of loading, and to analyze the vulnerability of these structures to various failure modes. Axial loading with is the focus in this course.
