Mode of Delivery
Daytime Class
Prerequisites and co-requisities
Recommended Optional Programme Components
Course Contents
Definition of stress, stress-strain relations, basic elasticity equations and plane-elasticity theory, Fundamental fracture mechanics; Strain measurement methods: electrical-resistance type strain gauges, strain-gauge circuits, Strain analysis methods, Material behavior under stress, strain and fracture, fracture types and affecting factors, impact test, damage and damage analysis, methodology, process and material-dependent damage types. Stages of damage analysis will be examined and damage types will be discussed in detail. Different types of fracture damage mechanisms will be examined and the types of damage frequently seen in machine elements and systems will be analyzed. Among these damage types, fatigue, corrosion, stress corrosion, corrosion fatigue, hydrogen embrittlement, creep, friction and wear damage types will be examined in detail and the precautions to be taken to prevent similar damage types will be explained.
