2011 - Introduction to Mechanics of Materials
Part I & Part II
Another great reference. Thanks to the author we have now this 2 books as introduction to mechanics of materials (i & ii). We, SPE, scientific pdf ebooks, hope you find them fertile and very clear.
Good lecture!
Preface
This book offers a basic introduction to the mechanics of materials for mechanical engineering's students. It provides students with a good material to enhance their ability for analyzation to some given problems, by using fundamental approaches. The mandatory prerequisites are simply to know mathematical analysis, physics of the materials and the stages, since the subject is the synthesis of the courses mentioned above.
The book is divided on six chapters plus an appendix. Each chapter contains the basic theory with more illustrative examples. At the end of all the chapters, the reader can find unresolved problems to practice and test their understanding of the topic being discussed. The results of these problems are exposed behind the unresolved problems.
Chapter 1 examines the most important concepts of material mechanics, the concept of constraint. This concept is derived from the physics of materials. The nature and properties of the basic tensions, that is, normal, shear and support tensions; They also show up.
Chapter 2 deals with stress and strain analysis of axially loaded elements. The Saint Venant principle shows the limits of this theory in its application. The results are widespread in Hooke's law.
In Chapter 3, we present the basic theory for twisted members. First we debate about the torsion of circular elements then after, the torsion of the non-circular elements is being analyzed.
In Chapter 4, which is the largest chapter, the theory of beams is studied. This theory is limited to a member with at least one plane of symmetry and the applied charges act in this area. We analyze the tensions and deformations in this type of beams.
Chapter 5 continues beam theory, focusing mainly on the analysis of deviation. In this chapter two major methods are presented: Castigliano's theorem and the method of integration.
Chapter 6 deals with column buckling. In this chapter, we give an introduction to Euler's theory concerning the solving stability issues in the columns.
Finally, we greatly appreciate the fruitful discussions between our colleagues, namely the teacher. Pavel Elesztos, Dr. Michal Cekan. And we also want to thank the comments and suggestions of our critics.
