MSET 5160 - Creep and Fatigue in Engineering Design and Systems Performance

3 hours

Examines creep and fatigue of engineering materials; introduces continuum mechanics and explores deformable bodies, crystalline plasticity, cyclic loading and deformation, high temperature and rate dependent deformation, service life prediction, creep/fatigue/environment interactions, creep and fatigue fracture mechanisms, sliding, rolling, fretting, methods of analysis and case studies.

Prerequisite(s): ENGR 2332 and ENGR 3450.
