phy555 - Basic Engineering (Vollständige Modulbeschreibung)

Achieving basic knowledge in applied mechanics, especially in statics and elasticity theory. Achieving basic knowledge on how to produce objects with defined geometry and properties in an effective and economic way.

Applied Mechanics:

• Static equilibrium (mainly 2D)
• frame works
• friction (Coulomb)
• Hooke's law (3D including lateral contraction and thermal expansion)
• bending and torsion with planar cross sections
• Mohr's theory

Production Engineering:

• Overview on manufacturing technologies, like
• Casting and other primary shaping processes
• Plastic deformation processes
• Cutting and separating processes
• Joining processes
• Coating processes
• Changing material properties
