ME 3501L: Torsion Experiment

This video series demonstrates the hands-on nature of the Mechanical Engineering Department's curriculum at Cal Poly Pomona. All mechanical engineering students at Cal Poly Pomona take the Mechanics, Behavior and Selection of Materials Laboratory (ME 3501L), where they apply concepts learned in the classroom to real-world materials.
This video was recorded at Cal Poly Pomona in Fall 2020. Narrated by Dr. Mehrdad Haghi, filmed and edited by Patrick Mannion.

Absolutely cool. Graphing by computer beats the way it was done 40 years ago

With computers it takes deliberate action to remove "unwanted" data points. In the "old days", you just didn't draw them in the first place. (So I'm told.)

@@danpatterson8009 we did RMS between points and curve fitting, using a TI-35 calculator. We plotted everything by hand. What was done in the video taking 15 minutes, took us several hours.

What an age we live in.

Could you post the data please

Sir i see that you try to align the fixed chuck . Since you can not make perfect aligment do you record any initial tork during you are tightining the fixed chuck?
