Aim:
One main task in Solid Mechanics is to investigate the interaction between forces (the loading) and deformations in structures made of different materials. In the course, the dimensioning of constructions or parts of them will be studied so that the functioning of the structure is achieved with a sufficient safety. The course will give a fundamental understanding of problems arising in engineering and present simple methods for approximate calculations of stresses in the materials and deformations of the structures.

Prerequisites: (valid for students admitted to programmes within which the course is offered)
Mathematis, Mechanics (statics)
Note: Admission requirements for non-programme students usually also include admission requirements for the programme and threshhold requirements for progression within the programme, or corresponding.

Supplementary courses:
The Finite Element Method
|
|
Organisation:
The course is given during one quarter (half a semester). Lectures and lessons are given and the students perform laboratory work.
|
|
Course contents:
Definitions and fundamental concepts. Elementary elasticity theory. Bars loaded in tension and compression and analysis of trusses. Torsion. Bending of beams: moment and shear force diagrams, area moments, normal and shear stresses, deformations, elementary cases. Stability: Euler buckling. Stress analysis at multi-axial stress states and yield criteria. Elementary fracture theory.
