infrastructure isfacing with challenging problems of aging metal components. These components are typicallymade out of structural steel and aluminum. This paper discusses development of a new shortcourse which introduces students with basic principles of reengineering design andmanufacturing procedures for aging metal components. Special emphasis is placed on the use oflightweight high strength fiberglass and carbon composites. This course is specifically designedfor the senior/first year graduate students from Mechanical, Civil, Architectural and Industrialengineering departments. Typically students taking this short course have prerequisites includingstrength of materials, machine design and material science. The proposed course will be useful

However in termsof LBB the significant parameter is the elastic-plastic fracture toughness, and the materialstrength. However based on assessment based on linear elastic fracture mechanics, thecandidate materials are carbon steels, low alloy steels and stainless steels, whichinterestingly are the materials that are used for pressure vessels. In terms of the fatiguecrack initiation, the appropriate parameters are the threshold stress intensity factor rangeand the endurance limit and the material selection is based on these parameters.INTRODUCTIONSelection of materials and manufacturing processes are

The students are made aware of the fact that rotating principal stressesplay a very important role in designing components that are subjected to biaxial or multiaxialfatigue, such as the crankshaft. Also the diameter of Mohr’s circle can be directly related toTresca or von Mises theories of failure.INTRODUCTIONThis study constitutes a laboratory component of the Mechanics of Materials courses taught toengineering students at the sophomore or junior levels. It is important that the students learn howthe external loads combine to produce stresses in a critical location of a structure or acomponent. This is fundamental to the understanding of the response of a structural componentto a combined system of loads that result in normal

orthopedic disorders in today’s modernsociety, there is a necessity to engineer biomaterials that improve the quality of life for peoplewith painful and debilitating diseases. This will require educational institutions to providespecialized instruction in these areas. Yet, there have been relatively few published reports onbiomaterials and tissue engineering-related lab activities, and existing activities lack a foundationin materials science. A primary deliverable of this project is to address this need and thusstrengthen science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) education by developinginteractive experiments that introduce tissue engineering through a biomaterials designperspective, emphasizing mechanics, cell behavior, and drug delivery

The fatigue process in this case is therefore described asinitiation controlled.A rotating beam fatigue test is traditionally performed as a laboratory experiment in the juniorlevel materials course. The rotating beam fatigue test provides the experimental determination ofthe S-N curve. The S-N curve graphically shows the stress amplitude (S) as a function of thenumber of cycles to failure (N). This test also helps the students to understand the concept ofendurance limit
