Learning outcomes: 1. Knowledge: The student received the theoretical and practical messages in the range of the materials engineering problems, including the safe construction of machines problems solutions. He is able to identify the strength criteria of constructional elements for the simple and composed stresses of the material. 2. Skills: Student purchases the skill to engineering mechanics problem solutions, including unsolved from static’s methods. He is able to choose the shape and to count the machines construction elements sizes in dependence on loading forces and their moment’s quantity. He knows requirements relating to the ways of admissible safe loads qualification in the machine’s constructional solutions.

Competences: The student possesses the consciousness of the responsibility meaning for the projected and used technical constructions safety assurance. He had consciousness of the professional risk problem and he is able to inappropriate or incompetent projecting the construction results estimate. He appreciates the improving necessity and the need of the additional schooling.

Prerequisites: Mathematics, Physics, basic knowledge about properties of materials

Course content: Elasticity, plasticity, the Hooke’s law, admissible stresses, simple and complicate state of the strength, effort hypothesis, work, power, efficiency, mechanical energy, dynamic laws, dynamic of rotary motion.
