Syllabus: |
This course teaches the fundamentals for the analysis of materials and structures in engineering with a specific focus on aircraft and space structures. The lectures are split into two parallel modules: Solid Mechanics and Materials. The Solid Mechanics module covers general material relating to the analysis of stresses, strains, deformation, and strength in solid materials and simple components. Specific topics include stress and strain tensors, elasticity, plasticity, elementary solutions of theories of elasticity and plasticity, principles of minimum potential energy, and finite element modelling. The second module, Materials is focused on the application of materials in design of aerospace components and structures. Topics covered include the application of monolithic materials; metals, polymers and ceramics and composite materials. (Metal matrix –MMC’s, Polymer matrix- PMC’s and ceramic matrix – CMC’s). For composite materials, design, fabrication, properties and applications are discussed. |
