This course focuses on the strains, stresses, strengths, rigidities, stabilities, and failure criteria of materials under loads and offers the necessary theory for designing engineering structures from a material point of view. It is a fundamental course in college of Engineering and taught in almost all curricula related to mechanics, such as aeronautics, mechanical engineering and civil engineering. The prerequisite courses are Advanced Mathematics and Theoretical Mechanics. With this course of study, students are required to analyze the strength, rigidity and stability problems for a given member, have the ability to establish mechanical models for a practical problem and analyze them in a simple and logical manner.
