Course Contents
Introduction to statics (equilibrium of two- and three-dimensional structures, free-body diagram, resultant and statically equivalent systems of forces and moments, distributed forces,
method of sections and joints for trusses)
Average stress/strain
Linear elasticity (Youngs and shear moduli, Poissons ratio)
Axial loading
Torsion (solid circular cross-sections, thin-walled tubes)
Bending (shear and moment diagrams, flexure formula)
Deflection of beams and shafts (beam equation, discontinuity functions)
Transverse shear stress
Combined loadings
Energy methods (strain energy, conservation of energy, principle of virtual work)
Shared subtopics (safety factor, stress concentration, statically indeterminate problems and
compatibility, principle of superposition, plasticity)
