often includes an introduction of forces in a physics course based on mechanics,followed by a course on statics (and dynamics), a course on mechanics (or strength) of materialsand then a course in mechanical behavior of materials. For students in materials engineering thecourse on mechanical behavior of materials takes place during undergraduate studies, forstudents in other engineering disciplines this course may be taken as a senior elective or ingraduate school. The foundations leading to this upper level coursework have remainedessentially unchanged for the last thirty to forty years. Although efforts have been made toevaluate and improve courses in statics, mechanics and mechanical behavior or materials, thecoordination of these pieces
