The course introduces the following topics to primarily second-yearstudents: concepts of stress, strain, and deformation; factor of safety; stress-strain relationshipsand material properties; stress concentrations; area moments of inertia; axially loaded members,torsionally loaded members, and bending of beams; shear and moment diagrams; stresses due tocombined loading; thin-walled pressure vessels; transformation of stress including Mohr’s circle

Once the students arepresented with the theory, their knowledge is usually reinforced with a laboratory experiment onthe material. This approach focuses on having students remember information for laterapplication. The issue with this approach is that students begin to think in terms of set test cases.If they are presented with a problem, they attempt to relate it to an example they have seen beforeand approach the solution in the same manner

THE DESIGN PROCESS The question is asked: What is the difference between a scientist and an engineer?One response is that a scientist discovers new knowledge while an engineer puts thatknowledge to work. “The essence of engineering is the utilization of the resources andlaws of nature to benefit humanity.”3 The “tools” engineers use to perform their serviceto society include basic science, mathematics

Annual faculty review reports ask for use of student responses to only 8 of these questions/comments. Students rank these as 4 = Excellent, 3 = Good, 2 = Fair, or 1 = Poor.
