About this film
The videos below feature the course instructor, Dr. John Germaine, demonstrating the important elements of the first lab assignment in 1.103. The software featured in the videos is courtesy of John Germaine and Stephen Rudolph. This course introduces the concepts, techniques, and devices used to measure engineering properties of materials. There is an emphasis on measurement of load-deformation characteristics and failure modes of both natural and fabricated materials. Weekly experiments include data collection, data analysis, and interpretation and presentation of results.
