MECHANICS OF MATERIALS LAB

The Mechanics of Materials Laboratory is used for demonstrating phenomena related to stress, strain, buckling, and fatigue. This lab has basic equipment for mechanics of material like bending in straight beams, curved beam etc. It also has torsion apparatus and Charpy impact tester. 

LIST OF EQUIPMENT

1. Charpy Impact Tester
2. Deflection of Beam Apparatus
3. Strain Gage Apparatus
4. Thin Wall Cylinder Apparatus
5. Thick Wall Cylinder Apparatus
6. Torsion Bar Apparatus


LIST OF EXPERIMENTS

1.To determine the influence of the notch shape on notched bar impact work.
2.To determine the influence of the specimen material on notched bar impact work.
3.To determine visual evaluation of the fracture surface
4.Cantilever Beam
