Class Policy:
1. In all Hour Exams and Final Exam one 8-1/2 x 11 sheet may be used during each test.
Otherwise, tests will be close-book and close-notes No solution manuals are allowed.
2. Attendance of the class is required.
3. Dishonesty on exams will automatically lead to failure of the course.
4. Bringing solution manuals to any quizzes, exams or whiteboarding automatically leads to failure
of the course.
5. Chatting in the class automatically leads to failure of the course.
6. Homework will be assigned and collected. The solution to the HW problems will be posted at
the following website: http://faculty.eng.fiu.edu/~wu/Teaching.html
7. Students are encouraged to use computers to check HW assignments.
8. Pop-up quizzes may include the following material:
a. the sections before my lecture
b. the sections that have been lectured
c. HW problems related to the material that has been lectured.
9. Pop-up quizzes will only be announced one day earlier.
Make-up Policy:
Make-up tests will be allowed for certified illness (a doctor's certificate will be required) or by prior
permission only. All other instances will result in loss of letter grade.
Incomplete Policy:
Incomplete will not be given unless for severe illness or unexpected family issues.
Course Description:
A mid-level course addressing the selection of engineering materials based on static loadings,
environmental analysis and the experimental analysis of mechanical systems. Emphasis on metals and
composite materials.
2
Course Objectives:
1. Identify mechanical properties and the characteristics of elastic behavior for material types.
2. Calculate the stress and strain configuration at a point for a specific loading arrangement.
3. Transform plane stress and strain configurations and identify principal stress and Principal Axes.
4. Use the appropriate failure criteria for diverse situation and/or materials (elastic behavior only).
5. Design prismatic beams.
MME Educational Objectives
1.Broad and in-depth knowledge of engineering science and principles in the major fields of Mechanical Engineering
for effective engineering practice, professional growth, and as a base for life-long learning.
2. A sense of professional and social responsibility, including a commitment to protect both occupational and public
health and safety, developed through consideration of moral, social, and ethical paradigms related to the engineering
profession and practice.
MME Program Outcomes:
