Mechanics of Materials:This course seeks to give students the skills and knowledge required to analyse a wide range of topics in Mechanics of Materials, and to give them a sound foundation on which to build future work. Properties of Materials:This course seeks to give students a conceptual understanding rather than a liturgy of rules, lists and numbers. It begins with a detailed study of fatigue and its failures. Students are given a comprehensive insight into the mysteries of the common alloy systems including irons and steels, stainless steels, copper alloys and aluminium alloys. The aim is to predict properties of alloys via their phase diagrams.
