ME321: Advanced Mechanics of Solids

Course Objectives

2

• Learn to handle the mechanics of deformable bodies, as opposed to rigid body mechanics. • Build on what we have learnt in ESO204. Local approach vs global approach, forces and displacements vs stress and strain See deformation! Learn to design experiments (both real and computational) to measure deformation and its effects.

    The title of the book comes from the concept of a retiring professor’s last lecture, that gives insights into the professor’s life and what really matters to him. This book is based on the inspirational speech Randy Pausch gave on September 18,2007 at Carnegie Mellon University. Randy Pausch was forced to give this untimely and very literal last lecture after being diagnosed with terminal pancreatic cancer. Randy was told he only had months to live at the time that the lecture was given. The purpose of the “Last Lecture” was so that Randy could summarize and pass on his wisdom of how to achieve your dreams for his students. The speech also gave him a chance to dedicate his last lecture and a sense of his life to his three children.…

    The overall purpose of this experiment is to become more familiar with experimental processes which will be used continuously throughout the semester. The first process was indentation hardness testing. This was done to find the plastic deformation of three different materials using a QV-700 Universal Hardness Tester. The second process was bend beam testing. This test was performed to determine and compare the Modulus of Elasticity, Yield Strength and Yield Strain on four different materials using a cantilever beam and vernier calipers.…

    In this video, Randy Pausche, the Carnegie Mellon professor, is giving his last lecture. Although, he was fighting a terminal cancer, he was not talking about death, but about how to live in fullest. His last lecture is about his childhood dreams, enabling dreams of others, and about how we can try to achieve them. Randy’s speech is full of lessons which could be as valuable for students, workers, and housewives so long for managers, business owners, and executives. It is easy to relate the context of this video and the speaker himself to a number of Organizational Behavior’s concepts such as; personality, values, individual decision-making, and motivation.…

    David Keirsey talks about in his book, Please Understand Me II, the role and purpose of a Guardian. According to Plato, Guardians were the ones to keep watch over the activities as well as the attitudes of the people in their circle. They held morally correct beliefs, as well as being alert to both the needs and the perils of others. Guardians are also able to store large amounts of information which they can later bring up in a conversation if needed. Facts such as birthdays, people’s names, parents and family members, deaths, social or civic events, etc. can be recalled which may lead to other topics of information as well. It is the storage, retrieval, and effortless association of such data that makes Guardians the most comfortable at conversation of all the types (David Keirsey,1998).…
