Paper ID #7726Analytical Studies on S-N Curves for Some SteelsProf. Somnath Chattopadhyay, Georgia Southern University Page 23.193.1 c American Society for Engineering Education, 2013 Analytical Studies on S-N Curves for Some SteelsABSTRACTExperimental data are often employed to obtain stress amplitude versus number of cycles tofailure characteristics of materials (S-N Curve). This activity as a laboratory component of ajunior level materials science course explores a novel way to understand the fatigue failureprocess. The

inconsistent use of symbols between relatedcourses. For example, some authors use sn, ss, and e for normal stress, shear stress, and strain,instead of the standard Greek symbols σ, τ, and ε. This use of Latin characters with multiplesubscripts confuses students because the Greek symbols are used in textbooks for other courses,and because capital S is used for section modulus later in this course. Students have troubledistinguishing between s and S on the chalkboard during lectures (and in their notes).My students also complain about the high cost of textbooks. In the last 30 years, textbook costs Page 23.673.3have risen about twice as fast as inflation

Pharm. in Biotechnology anda Masters in Optometry. The continuous success of quality of the BVDU programs resulted inreaccreditation with a prestigious 'A' grade by the National Assessment and AccreditationCouncil (NAAC) in September 2011. The BVDU – JSNN partnership in nanotechnology is through its College of Engineering.Bharati Vidyapeeth Deemed University‟s College of Engineering, Pune (BVDUCOE) wasestablished in 1983.

treatment(s) were statistically significant. Resultsfrom the two semesters under study are presented in Tables 1, 2, 3, and 4. A normalized form ofthe result, Hake Gain 30, was calculated for both years. as well as for Krause 24. Other studies inthis paper did not calculate Hake Gain; hence were not included in this comparison. These resultsfor 2012 and 2011 classes will be compared with each other and with those of prior similarstudies.Exit post tests scores for both visual matching and written explanations were higher in 2012 than2011 (Tables 1 and 2). On the schematic matching (Visual) section, Hake Gain values for 2012were .65, .48 and .35 while those of 2011 were .14, .26, and .37 for unsaturated, saturated andsupersaturated solutions

’ confidence in this topic. As the graduate students were only required tocomplete an assignment on capacity fade mechanisms, they should be placed in small groupswith undergraduate students to discuss the information that they gathered from a thoroughreview of technical publications. This would build the confidence of the graduate students andwould also provide additional exposure of the topics to the undergraduate students.References 1.
