Catalo" #escription: -tu./ of the mechanics of .eformable bo.ies, inclu.ing three%.imensional stress an. strain tensors an. their transformations. E0uations of compatibilit/, continuit/ an. e0uilibrium are intro.uce. an. applie. to un.erstan.ing the inter%relation of forces, .isplacements, stresses an. strains. 1onstituti2e relations an. elastic constants are e2aluate.. 3ailure criteria for brittle an. .uctile materials as 4ell as those for structures are e5amine.. 6arious techni0ues for e2aluating .eflections are presente.. 1omple5 loa.ing scenarios for beams, torsional members an. a5iall/ loa.e. parts are stu.ie.. 7umerical techni0ues inclu.ing finite element anal/sis are applie. to the comple5 loa.ing scenarios. 3inall/ .esign applications are .iscusse. 2ia case stu.ies.
