Mechanics of Solids - MECH204

This unit will examine free body diagrams. Stress-strain relations and elastic constants will be analysed in an engineering context. The unit will examine statically determinate stress systems,considering the impacts of direct stress, shear stress, bending stress, torsional stress in an engineering context. Bending moment diagrams, shear force diagrams and deflection of beams will be examined.
