MTPR
 
MTPR 1300 (Materials and Processes)

 

This course provides students with basic knowledge about the behaviour and characteristics of common engineering materials and gives them an introduction to basic refining processes. This is important for understanding materials and fabrication methods for the design and manufacture of parts for durable service in the marine environment.

 

Production of Steel and Other Metals; Identification of Metals; Physical and Mechanical Properties of Metals; Structure of Metals; Phase Diagrams; Heat Treating; Non-Metal Materials; Adhesives, Ceramics, and Wood.

 

Prerequisites - SC 1807 (Safety in Science Lab (Lab Safety)) and SC 1808 (WHMIS)

 

Duration - 5 weeks

 

Lectures - 6 hours per week = 30 hours total

 

Laboratories - 2 hours per week = 10 hours total

 

 
MTPR 2100 (Strength of Materials)

 

This course is an introduction to the analysis of stresses in load bearing structural members.

 

Concepts of stress, strain and elasticity are applied to elementary systems of normal, shear and bending stress in order to give students an understanding of one of the fundamental building blocks upon which all engineering designs are based.

 

Basic Stress Systems; Strain and Elasticity; Mechanical Properties of Materials; Shear Force and Bending Moments; Stress Due to Bending; Torsional Shearing Stress; Statically Indeterminate Systems.

 

Prerequisites - MATH 1101 (Introduction to Calculus); MECH 2102 (Mechanics); SC 1807 (Safety in Science Lab (Lab Safety)) and SC 1808 (WHMIS)

 

Duration - 13 weeks

 

Lectures - 3 hours/week = 39 hours total

 

Laboratories - 2 hours/week every second week = 12 hours total

 

 
MTPR 2104 (Materials and Processes)

 

This course provides students with knowledge about the behaviour and characteristics of common engineering materials and gives them an understanding of basic industrial processes.

 

This background will enable students to select suitable materials and fabrication methods for the design and manufacture of parts to ensure successful service.
