Learning outcomes of the course unit
Basic knowledge of stress and strain related to simple cases of loaded bars and beams and the idea of the boundaries of applicability of these classical approaches. Criteria of fundamental limit states and determination of safety and dimensions of designed bodies or machine parts.
Prerequisites
Basic knowledge of statics and mathematics. Statics - conditions of static equilibrium and equivalence, free-body diagrams, assessment of static determinacy, shear force and bending moment diagrams. Mathematics - vectors and matrices, differential and integral calculus, solutions to differential equations. Knowledge of the software Maple.
Co-requisites
Not applicable.
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
The course-unit credit is granted under the condition of active participation in seminars and passing the seminar tests of basic knowledge (at least 10 ECTS points out of 20 must be gained). The points gained in seminar tests are included in the final course evaluation.
Final examination: Written part of the examination plays a decisive role, where the maximum of 80 ECTS points can be reached. Solution of several computational problems is demanded. The problems come from typical profile areas of given subject and supplied by a theoretical question, proof, etc. The lecturer will specify exact demands like the number and types problems during the semester preceding the examination.
Final evaluation of the course is obtained as the sum of ECTS points gained in seminars and at the examination. To pass the course, at least 50 points must be reached.

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 limit 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
Attendance at practical training is obligatory. Head of seminars carry out continuous monitoring of student's presence, their activities and basic knowledge.
