Aims

At the end of the course, the student must be able :
- to understand the theories describing the behaviour of materials submitted to mechanical constraints ;
- to select the most appropriate materials for a given application; and
- to apply the theory to calculate pieces of machines such as used in the construction of mechanical systems for power transmission and for the control of hydraulic structures.

Main themes

a) Principle of resistance of materials : constraints in the materials, traction, compression, flexion
b) Calculation methods for static and dynamic analysis of machines
c) Materials used in machine construction
d) Calculation of machine pieces
e) Elements of machinery
f) Application of numerical methods for machine design
g) Exercices
- Computer room exercices on the design of machine pieces
- Material tests in the laboratory
- Computer aided design
