Credit: 2 PDH
Subject Matter Expert: Jyoti Mukherjee, P.E., DEng, M.S., MBA, PGDBM
In Machine Design Series: Material Properties Part I, you'll learn ...
- Key components of a stress-strain diagram for steel under static and adjustable tensile loading
- Cast iron, carbon steel, and alloy steel properties
- Brittle and ductile material properties for design
- Damping properties of metals
Overview
This course is the first of ten (10) courses in a machine design course series. Each course in the series is stand-alone and can be completed without having completed the preceding courses in the series.
The objective of this course is to enable practicing engineers to gain a clear understanding of material properties for designing any industrial machine or its elements.
Machine design consists of identifying functional requirements, selecting mechanisms and structure, developing concepts, stress, strength, and life analysis, and verifying the design analytically to satisfy the cost, manufacturing, and functional requirements. Out of all these steps, the analysis step is very crucial for a successful and viable design.
The design analysis consists of various steps such as assumptions, determination of loads and forces (external and internal) for the machine under consideration, material selection to satisfy loads and forces, stress, strain, strength, and life calculations, and modifications or revisions, if necessary.
This course will focus on material properties as they relate to material selection for machine elements.
Specific Knowledge or Skill Obtained
This course teaches the following specific knowledge and skills:
- The four stages of machine design
- Nature and definitions of material properties for various common engineering materials used in mechanical design
- Application and selection of engineering material properties for the purpose of machine design
- Differentiate between strength-related and non-strength-related properties for common engineering materials
- Theory and testing stress-strain diagrams for steel materials
- Dynamic Strength of material under repeated external loading
- Thermal properties of engineering materials used for mechanical design
Certificate of Completion
You will be able to immediately print a certificate of completion after passing a multiple-choice quiz consisting of 10 questions. PDH credits are not awarded until the course is completed and quiz is passed.
