Course Synopsis
This course imparts the knowledge of the
physical and mechanical properties of
materials needed for the design of process
engineering equipment.
Topics covered include theories of structure
of materials (solids i.e. ferrous alloy or
non- ferrous alloy), mechanical properties
analysis such as stress and strain, theory
of failure, finally the mechanical design
of pressure vessel and support for
chemical process equipment's.
