Course Outcomes:

On completion of the course, the student will be able to:

  1. Illustrate the mechanical properties of materials, different engineering materials used for manufacturing automobile components and various heat treatment processes.
  2. Utilize the principles of stress and strain in riveted joints, welded joints and thin cylindrical shells.
  3. Solve problems on strain energy stored in a body under various load conditions and the moment of inertia for different automobile sections.
  4. Construct the shear force and bending moment diagram on beams and use these principles in theory of pure bending torsion.

Module 1:

Mechanical properties – tensile strength, compressive strength, ductility, hardness, impact strength, fatigue, creep resistance, malleability, toughness etc. Cooling curve for pure iron – effect of rate of cooling on grain size, effect of grain size on mechanical properties, factors promoting fine grain. Heat treatment of metals – Need for heat treatment, description of different process such as annealing, tempering, hardening, case hardening, normalizing, nitriding and their applications
Need for alloying, List different alloying elements and different alloy steels. Specific applications, merits and demerits of steel, aluminium, magnesium, copper, composites and plastics as automobile component material.
