Engineering Science (SKMU 2113)

SYNOPSIS

This course is divided into two parts ie Solid Mechanics and Thermodynamics.

Part 1: Solid Mechanics

This part of the course provides students with the knowledge to determine the strength and stiffness of structures being used. The structures that will be studied in this course are bars, pins, bolts, shafts, and beams. The types of applied loadings are axial loads, torsional loads, and transverse loads.  At the end of the course, students should also be able to determine the mechanical properties of the materials with respect to their strength and stiffness.

Part 2: Thermodynamics

This part of the course introduces students to the basic principles of thermodynamics. Thermodynamicsis a basic science that deals with energy. It discusses basic concepts and introduces the various forms of energy and energy transfer as well as properties of pure substances. A general relation for the conservation of energy principle will be developed and applied to closed systems and extended to open systems.
