Engineering Solid Mechanics: Fundamentals and Applications

Product Description

Engineering Solid Mechanics bridges the gap between elementary approaches to strength of materials and more advanced, specialized versions on the subject.The book provides a basic understanding of the fundamentals of elasticity and plasticity, applies these fundamentals to solve analytically a spectrum of engineering problems, and introduces advanced topics of mechanics of materials - including fracture mechanics, creep, superplasticity, fiber reinforced composites, powder compacts, and porous solids.Text includes:· stress and strain, equilibrium, and compatibility· elastic stress-strain relations· the elastic problem and the stress function approach to solving plane elastic problems· a…
