Course content:

  • Generalized Hooke’s Law for elastic solids.
  • Isotropic – anisotropic – homogenous – non-homogenous materials.
  • The Saint-Venant principle. The exact theory of stress analysis for straight and curved beams under tension, torsion and bending. Beams on elastic foundations.
  • Simple problems of 2-D elasticity (prismatic wall elements under hydrostatic pressure, thick-walled cylinders under internal and external uniform pressure, stress concentration at the boundary of perforations in plates under plane stress).
  • Simple problems of beams on elastic foundation, 2-D and 3-D elasticity (thick-walled spheres under internal and external uniform pressure, torsion theory of circular beams).
  • Theory and simple applications of thin plates and shells.
