Strength of Materials 2Prerequisite for taking the course is to submit and defend semestral assignments. Prerequisite for taking the exam is to get a positive grade.
The goal
Enable understanding of important laws and methods of Mechanics, with emphasis on statics. Develop creativity and ability to understand, formulate and solve engineering problems independently.
The outcome
Student is able and competent to analyze and solve problems of mechanics of deformable body and systems of plane frame and truss structures.
