Textbook:
Beer, F. P., and Johnston, E.R.,Jr., Mechanics of Materials, SI metric edition, McGraw-Hill.Goals:
This course is designed to give the basic concepts in engineering design and analysis to engineering students from different disciplines.Prerequisites by topic:
1. Basic Calculus
2. Statics
Prerequisite Course: ES 221
Topics:
1. Concept of stress: normal stress, shearing stress, bearing stress and stresses on an oblique plane under axial loading; stress under general loading conditions, ultimate and allowable stress; factor of safety.
2. Concept of strain: normal strain under axial loading, stress-starin diagram, Hooke's law, deformation of members under axial loading, statically indeterminate problems, problems involving temperature changes, multiaxial loading, generalized Hooke's law, shearing strain.
3. Torsion: stresses and angle of twist in the elastic range, statically indeterminate shafts.
4. Pure bending: stresses and deformations in the elastic range, bending of members made of several materials, eccentric axial loading, unsymmetric bending.
5. Transverse loading: shear stress on a horizontal plane, shearing stresses in beams, shearing stresses in thin-walled members, stresses under combined loading.
6. Transformation of Stress: Principal Stresses and Maximum Shearing Stress, Mohr's Circle for Plane Stress, Stresses in Thin-Walled Pressure Vessels.
7. Deflection: elastic curve by integration, statically indeterminate beams.
