Prerequisite: Nil
Rationale: Analysis of stresses in a component subjected to loading is an inevitable part of
design process. This requires understanding and knowledge of various theories. The
course aims to expose students to such theories while emphasizing their applications
under stated conditions. This includes, theories of elasticity, theory of plasticity and
experimental stress analysis.
Course Outcome:
