Catalog Description: Prerequisites: Elementary strength of materials, calculus (AAS level), Physics I, C++ or BASIC. The principles of strength of materials are applied to mechanical design. Topics include theory of failure, stress concentration factors and fatigue, the design and analysis of shafts subjected to static and dynamic loadings, and critical speed of a rotating shaft.
