Covers a review of static systems, emphasizing a 4-step problem-solving approach for analyzing internal and external forces in structures.
Explores shear and bearing stresses, including plasticity, creep, Hooke's Law, and allowable stresses in engineering design.
Explores the behavior of axially loaded members, including length changes, stress concentration, and problem-solving approaches.
Discusses stresses in beams under flexure, including shear forces and bending moments.
Covers the calculation of curvature in beams and the design of beams for stress considerations.
Explores stresses in composite beams, including normal stresses, longitudinal strains, and moment-curvature relationship.
Explores the torsion of axisymmetric cross sections, focusing on circular bars of linearly elastic materials and their efficiency in resisting torsional loads.
