Description
The new edition of a textbook (first, 1991) covering the theory and application of the fundamental principles of mechanics of materials features some rewriting, some design changes, (including the introduction of color photographs), the addition of an exam review with partial solutions, and ample new problems throughout. The subject matter is arranged into 14 chapters covering stress, strain, mechanical properties of materials, axial load, torsion, bending, transverse shear, combined loadings, stress transformation, strain transformation, design of beams and shafts, deflections of beams and shafts, buckling of columns, and energy methods.
