Gives a clear and thorough presentation of the fundamental principles of mechanics and strength of materials. Provides both the theory and applications of mechanics of materials on an intermediate theoretical level. Useful as a reference tool by postgraduates and researchers in the fields of solid mechanics as well as practicing engineers.
Reprint of the original, first published in 1867.
It covers all the basic topics of mechanics of deformable bodies generally taught in these courses. The text presents the topics in a clear, simple, practical, logical and cogent fashion that provides the students with insights into theory as well as applications to practical problems. It uses an abundance of worked examples to impart a high level of comprehension of concepts and helps master the process of calculations, manipulations and that of making appropriate inferences. Well-labelled diagrams have been used throughout the text for a sound comprehension of the fundamentals of the subject. Most of the examples and chapter-end problems have been formulated in parametric form making them independent of units and suitable for practical applications. An extensive set of problems along with hints and answers is provided at the end of each chapter for practice. Since the book aims at covering the topics generally taught in engineering curriculum of several disciplines, an interdisciplinary approach has been followed. Some advanced topics such as thick pressure vessels, skew bending, curved members, beam-columns, etc. have also been included for the benefit of postgraduate students.
Presents in-depth coverage of fundamental and advanced concepts of strength of materials for mechanical and civil engineering students.
This new edition of the book on the properties of materials used in engineering answers some fundamental questions about how the material world around us functions. In particular: the author focuses on so-called strong materials, such as metals, wood, ceramics, glass, and bone. For each material in question, the author explains the unique physical and chemical basis for its inherent structural qualities. He also shows how an in-depth understanding of these materials' intrinsic strengths (and weaknesses) guides our engineering choices, allowing us to build the structures that support our modern society.
This brilliant treatise is based on extensive experimental and technological data derived from high-temperature materials development processes. The distinguished authors analyse results from the development of nuclear reactors and aerospace rocket engines. They apply this data to the problem of bearing capacity and the fracture of thermally loaded bodies. They establish new regularities of fracture at various modes of local and combined thermal loading.
