Strength of Materials (Mechanics of Materials) : Textbooks

This document outlines the topics covered in a Strength of Materials course over 14 weeks. The course introduces stress, strain, and material properties in weeks 1-3 when studying axially loaded rods. Later weeks cover topics like torsion in shafts, bending stresses in beams, combined loadings, buckling, and failure criteria. The purpose of machine design is to maximize safety and economy by ensuring materials are both strong and stiff enough to function as intended. Statics review includes drawing free body diagrams and solving for reaction forces. Key concepts are normal stress, bearing stresses, and stresses on inclined planes in axially loaded members.

Strength of Materials course answers two crucial questions an engineer encounters in practical life:

1. Is the material strong enough?


2. Is the material stiff enough ?
If your material is not strong enough, it will break.

If your material is not stiff enough, it will deform and not work in the way you intend to.

The purpose of designing machine elements are: 1.Maximizing safety 2.Maximizing economy (reducing cost)

REVIEW OF STATICS

STEP 1: Draw the Free Body Diagram (FBD)

STEP 2: Invoke the equations of equilibrium and solve for reaction forces.
