Course Description
This course introduces students to the important mechanical properties that mechanical engineers require knowledge of and further introduces the concept and practice of materials selection. The links between material structure, processing and properties are emphasized. Topics include tensile and fracture properties, material selection, atomic bonding, crystal structure and strengthening. Also included is a focus on the four classes of engineering material: metals, ceramics, polymers and composites, considering the structure, properties and engineering applications of each. Practice in testing of materials is included.

Course Description
Students produce an outline design of an offshore floating structure in a two-day design project. Specific attention is placed on the calculation of the fluid loads arising due to buoyancy effects, surface water waves, steady currents, the combination of waves, and currents. Students are exposed to a complex design problem requiring the practical application of the modeling procedures introduced in the autumn term of the core Fluid Mechanics module (CI2-240). The emphasis of the work lies in both undertaking practical design calculations and in understanding the limitations of the solutions achieved

Course Description
This course provides a basic understanding of the fundamental laws of fluid mechanics and the ability to use them in solving a range of simple engineering problems. Students develop analytical skills and some design appreciation, involving awareness of the interaction between fluid mechanics and considerations of energy resources, materials, solid mechanics, economics, and the environment. The course examines the historical development of the subjects as well as current trends. Laboratory work reinforces lecture material, provides experience of relevant measuring techniques, and develops skills in group working and in written communication.

Course Description
Building on the learning in Mechanics (Part 1), the course provides students with a basic understanding of the behavior of common structural forms, based on a physical understanding of how these forms are able to carry external forces through the development of internal forces in structural elements. This concept is extended to derive stress and strain distributions within basic structural members.
