Learning outcomes
Knowledge
The student who successfully completes the course will be able to demonstrate a solid knowledge of the basis of strength of material including the concepts of stress, strain and elastic constitutive behaviour; at the end of the course the student will have the ability to analyse the behaviour of structual mechanical components and to verify by analytical methods their strength and stiffness by selecting and applying proper structural models among: beams, memebranes, plates and shells.
Assessment criteria of knowledge
In the oral and written tests the students will be assessed on the ability to understand and to properly use the most significant quantities related to the structural integrity of materials and structures. The student has to demonstrate the capacity to model in quantitative and accurate ways the operative conditions of a structural components of a relatively simple machine or of a mechanical system. The developed model has to be coompltely solved up to the numerical results in order to assess the structural properties (strength, stiffness, stability). The solution has to be presented in accurate written and oral forms by using the correct quantities (units and numerical) and by adopting suitable graphical representations.
