Syllabus
Definition of stress, stress tensor - normal and shearing stresses in axially loaded members. Normal and shearing strains - stress-strain relationship - Generalized Hooke's Law - Poisson's ratio - relationship between material properties of isotropic materials. - stress-strain diagram for uniaxial loading for ductile and brittle materials - working stress - factor of safety. Composite bars in tension and compression, temperature stresses, statically indeterminate problems. Thin Cylinders and Spherical Shells, Torsion of Circular Shafts and Helical Springs, shear force and bending moment diagrams, pure bending theory, shearing stresses in beams, Deflection of Beams, Theory of Columns, Plane stress and plane strain problems, Energy methods: Strain energy due to axial, torsion, bending and transverse shear. Castigliano's theorem, reciprocity theorem, Theories of Failure.
