2. Be able to use standards and design criteria in the process of mechanical design.
(a3,c3,e3,f2,g3,h1,i1,k2)
3. Identify or define the yield stress and the ultimate stress of a material. (a3,c3,e1,f2,g3,h1,i1,k2)
4. Be able to calculate the endurance limit of a material with appropriate corrections.
(a3,c3,e3,f2,g3,h1,i1,k2)
5. Be able to calculate the fatigue safety factor. (a3,c3,e3,f2,g3,h1,i1,k2)
6. Determine the speeds of gears in spur gear systems including planetary systems.
