Assigned Department Objectives
Teaching Method
Outline:
Learn about the strength properties of metal materials in several using conditions, based on Engineering Materials I learned in year 3.
Style:
The instructor explains the key points of the class. Students investigate the details and report them.
Notice:
Review what you learned in year 3 and organize your knowledge in advance. Be interested in various materials and destruction, and to try to gather various kinds of information. This course's content will amount to 90 hours of study in total. These hours include the learning time guaranteed in classes and the standard self-study time required for pre-study / review, and completing assignment reports.
Students who miss 1/3 or more of classes will not be eligible for evaluation.
