About Product
A continuum-mechanics approach to deformable solids is fast replacing the conventional strength-of-materials approach at undergraduate level. This textbook helps to fill a need created by the increasing adoption of the new approach. Requiring only a basic knowledge of statics, the book is designed for both college students and practising engineers. It provides a complete treatment of the fundamental principles of mechanical behaviour, analysis and performance of deformable solids. Numerous illustrations and problems help to develop a better understanding of the subject matter.The book describes the cases of simple stress and strain; deals with the torsion of shafts of various cross-sections; considers the shearing force and bending moment in a beam; analyses the stresses due to bending; illustrates how to determine the slope and deflection characteristics of a beam; provides the analysis of stresses and strains at a point in 2-D and 3-D cases; concerns the cases of combined loading and theories of elastic failure; examines the elastic stability of columns; and explores the energy methods.If you want to buy this book online, kindly click on the following link:Amazon.in
