STRENGTH OF MATERIALS

PRE-REQUISITE: Knowledge of Engineering mechanics.

Faculty: Dr. P.A.Krishnan

OBJECTIVE: To provide the same basic methodology to deformable bodies under the action of Forces and Torques.

1. Simple Stresses And Strains-Types of stresses-types of strain

2. Stress transformation equations. Principal stress and their planes. Plane of Maximum shear stress � Mohr�s Circle for stress

3. Shear force and bending moment Diagrams for different types of beams like cantilever Relationship between loading - Shear force and bending moment diagrams for cantilever, simply supported and overhanging beams subjected to concentrated load and Uniformly Distributed Load(UDL)

4. Deflection equation elastic line of a beam � Different methods to find deflection and slope of beams like Macauly�s method, moment area method and conjugate beam method.

5. Theory of simple torsion � assumptions � simple torsion formula for circular shafts � hollow shafts � power transmission � strength and stiffness of shafts.
