Geomechanics: Basic ConceptsIntroduces basic concepts of geomechanics, stress paths, effective stress, and shear strength analysis through laboratory testing.
Shear Behavior: Evaluation and LawsExplores material behavior in shear, shear forces, stress, equilibrium, shear laws, tension/compression, plane shear, shear rate, constrained slip, and shear strength.
Critical State ConceptExplores the critical state concept in geomechanics, covering stress paths, shear strength, and soil behavior under different stress conditions.
Linear Elasticity (3D)Explores linear elasticity in 3D, stress-strain relationship, isotropic materials, and shear stress importance.
Principal Stresses in 2D and 3DExplores principal stresses in 2D and 3D, deriving equations and understanding the relationship between shear and normal stresses.
Elasticity and Beam BendingExplores linear elasticity, stress-strain relationships, and beam bending kinematics with a focus on stress tensors and internal forces.
Introduction to Structural MechanicsCovers the basics of structural mechanics, including static forces, stress, strain, and structural elements like bars, cables, trusses, and beams.
