6 Formulas for Stress and Strain fone 1.3 Contents ‘The remaining parts of this book are as follows. Part 2: Facts; Principles; Methods. ‘This part describes important relationships associated with stress and strain, basic material behavior, principles and analytical methods of the mechanics of structural elements, and numerical and experimental techniques in stress analysis. Part 3: Formulas and Examples. This part contains the many applica- tions associated with the stress analysis of structural components. ‘Topics include the following: direct tension, compression, shear, and combined stresses; bending of straight and curved beams; torsion; bending of flat plates; columns and other compression members; shells of revolution, pressure vessels, and pipes; direct bearing and shear stress; elastic stability; stress concentrations; and dynamic and temperature stresses. Each chapter contains many tables associated with most conditions of geometry, loading, and boundary conditions for a given clement type. The definition of each term used in a table is completely described in the introduction of the table, Appendices. The first appendix deals with the properties of a plane area. The second appendix provides a glossary of the terminology employed in the field of stress analysis, ‘The references given in a particular chapter are always referred to by number, and are listed at the end of each chapter.
