This laboratory course is designed to provide hands-on experience
in testing and evaluating the mechanical properties of engineering
materials. Through a series of experiments, students will
understand the behavior of materials under various types of loading
such as tension, compression, torsion, impact, shear, and bending.
Students will gain proficiency in using key instruments like the
Universal Testing Machine (UTM), hardness testers (Brinell,
Rockwell), impact testing machines (Charpy, Izod), torsion and
fatigue testers. They will also develop the ability to analyze
material deformation, calculate mechanical properties like Young’s
modulus, yield strength, and hardness, and apply theoretical
knowledge in practical scenarios.
Learning Outcomes:
Determine mechanical properties of materials using standard testing techniques.
Interpret stress-strain behavior under tensile, compressive, torsional, and bending loads.
Evaluate hardness and impact resistance of engineering materials.
Use experimental data to calculate material constants like modulus of elasticity and rigidity.
