Mechanics Of Elastic Solids I

Many engineering applications involve the use of materials that behave elastically when performing their designed function. This course concerns the general analysis of small deformations, stress, and stress- deformation relations for elastic bodies. The solution of typical problems frequently encountered in engineering applications, e.g., extension, bending, and torsion of elastic bars, stress concentrations and thermoelastic behavior, are studied. Some modern computational methods currently used in engineering practice are introduced.
