Planned learning activities and teaching methods
The course is taught through lectures explaining the basic principles and theory of the discipline. Exercises are focused on practical topics presented in lectures.
Assesment methods and criteria linked to learning outcomes
Conditions for granting the credits: Active participation in tutorials, gaining at least 15 points in the control tests of in-course knowledge. Point gain from in-course tests (max. 30 points) is part of the final assessment of the course.
Examination: written and oral. Point gain from the examination is maximum 70 points. The content of the examination are questions on theory and solving the typical tasks related to profile areas of the course. Detailed examination conditions shall be specified by the lecturer in the first lecture. The final assessment is given by the sum of points gained in tutorials and examination. To pass the course, the student must gain at least 50 points.

Aims
The objective of the course Strength Analysis I is to equip the students with methodology for determination of strain and stress in bodies and risk assessment of basic boundary states. Practical experience with computations of the simplest bodies will be further supplemented with basic knowledge necessary for the strength design of real machine parts.
Specification of controlled education, way of implementation and compensation for absences
Tuition attendance is mandatory. The tutor is responsible for in-course check-ups of students’ attendance, their activities and basic knowledge. Unexcused absence is a reason for not granting the credits. One absence can be compensated by presence in another tutorial group within the same week, or by giving additional tasks. The conditions for granting credits: - Active participation in tutorials, good results in in-course tests of basic knowledge, solving additional tasks in case of excused absence. A detailed form to meet these requirements is given by the tutor in the first week of the semester.
