Course structure

Course outcomes-CO

At the end of this course, students will be;

· Able to identify, understand and apply the concepts of stress and strain to engineering structures

· Able to apply the basic principles of mechanics of materials and mathematic to translate engineering problems to free body diagrams

· Able to interpret, analyse and evaluate type of loads that exist in any components or engineering system and draw conclusions from the calculation results

· Able to collect and analyse data of laboratory test, and associate with engineering problems

· Able to write a good technical report and demonstrate good communication skill through oral presentation of integrated project which combined multi-disciplinary courses to solve engineering problems

· Able to work in a team through an integrated project

Advice

One hour lecture students should make themselves reading a minimum of 2 hours. Total hours should be increased for students who are weak or have low grades, especially below 2.5.

If you are taking 15 units, the total learning including lectures is at least 40 hours. This means that if you study 5 days a week, your own time is at least 5 hours. If 6 days at least 4 hours and 7 days for at least 3 hours and 30 min.

Iy you follow this advice, I believe students will not have a problem with understanding the contents, relate with the applications, not enough exercises, can not make any programming.

Method of learning: PBL & Flipclass room
