| Summary: | While designing engineering structures, whether they are supporting girders, shock absorbers or wings of an aircraft, an understanding of structural behavior and the influence of stresses is necessary. Written with a distinct approach of explaining concepts through solved problems this text discusses all fundamental concepts of the strength of materials including stress, strain, elastic constants, shear force, bending moment and bending stress. The study of flexural shear stress, conjugate beam method, method of sections and joints, statically determinate trusses and thin cylinders is presented in detail with the help of solved numerical exercises. The text also discusses advanced concepts of strength of materials such as shear center, rotating discs, unsymmetrical bending and deflection of trusses. |
