Assigned Department Objectives

Teaching Method

Outline:
The aim is to be able to calculate and evaluate the strength of structural and mechanical components, independently and continuously learn related matters, think logically, and have technical discussions. Based on the year 3's Strength of Materials I, year 4's Strength of Materials II, and year 5's Strength of Materials III, students will learn more advanced issues and prepare for Fracture Mechanics in the second year of graduate study.
Style:
Classes will be taught in a lecture style with exercises in the second half of class.
Notice:
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 study time required for pre-study / review, and completing assignment reports. Students should try to think and understand for themselves.
Students who miss 1/3 or more of classes will not be eligible for a passing grade.
