At SRU's Mechanics of Materials lab, students are excited to dive into hands-on experiments with various materials, testing their tensile, compression, flexural, torsion, and buckling properties. The excitement in the lab is palpable as students engage in real-world applications of theoretical concepts, gaining a deeper understanding of material behavior. This immersive experience not only enhances their learning but also ignites a passion for engineering, as they witness firsthand the fascinating responses of materials under different types of stress.
