Mechanics of Materials (MSK205)
After the course students should have a basicunderstanding of the mechanical properties of materials and how they are affected by the materialstructure and micro-mechanisms.Analyses and calculations based on the crystal structure, stress-strain curves and fracture mechanics data can be performed.

Course assessment
There must be an early dialogue between the course coordinator, the student representative and the students. The purpose is feedback from the students for changes and adjustments in the course for the current semester.In addition, a digital course evaluation must be carried out at least every three years. Its purpose is to gather the students experiences with the course.
