Understanding how a material behaves is critical to how we design. Brittle materials like glass and chalk break suddenly, while ductile materials like steel will flex much more. Find out what causes...

Strength of Materials is simply how a material reacts to various applied forces. As forces and moments are added to objects, we need to know how the the material reacts. Good engineers can see...

This videos starts a series for a review of strength of materials. Face it, its been a long time since we used this. See all the videos in the course here or on...
