The subject Strength of Materials deals with the strength, stability and rigidity of various structural or machine members such as beams, columns, shafts, springs, cylinders, et. These days, a number of books on the subject are available in the market. It is observed that although most of the books are having a few good features in them, their overall ranking drops when considered on composite parameters like coverage of a topic, lucidity of writing, variety of solved and unsolved problems, quality of diagrams ete. Usually, the students have to supplement one book with a few others to comprehend the subject. The present book aims to provide most of the good features in a single book. The book aims to be useful to degree-level students of mechanical and civil engineering as well as those preparing for AMIE and various other competitive examinations. However, diploma-level students will also find the book to be of immense use. The book will also benefit postgraduate students to some extent as it contains some advanced topics like bending of curved bars, rotating discs and cylinders, plastic bending and circular plates, etc. The salient features of the book are ‘* Moderately concise and compact text covering all major topics ‘Simple language aimed to benefit average and weak students Logical and evolutionary approach in descriptions for better imagination and visualisation Derivation of physical concepts from simple and readily comprehensible principles ‘Summary at the end of each chapter An appendix containing important relations and results, Rich pedagogy including = Over 540 illustrations = 440 Solved Examples = 220 Objective Type Questions = 175 Review Questions = 210 Problems It is necessary for students using this book to have completed a course in applied mechanics. Chapters 1 and 2 introduce the concept of simple and compound stresses at a point. The theory shows that an axial load may wil rece produce shear stresses along with normal stresses depending upon the section considered. The latter chapter also discusses the utility of Mohr’s circle in transformation of stress at a point. Chapter 3 explains the concept of strain energy that forms the basis of analysis in many cases. Chapters 4 to 8 are related to beams which may be simply supported, fixed at one or both ends or continuous having more than two supports. ‘The analysis includes the computations of bending moment, shear force, bending and shear stresses under transverse loads and deflection of beams. The concept of plastic deformation of beams beyond the elastic limit, being an advanced topic is taken up later in Chapter 17, Sometimes, curved members such as rings and hooks are also loaded. Chapter 9 discusses the stresses developed in such members. Chapter 10 takes up the theory of torsion, which also includes its application to shafts transmitting power. Chapter 11 discusses springs based on the same theory. Columns are important members of structures. Chapter 12 discusses the equilibrium of columns and struts, However, the computation of stress in plane frame structures, which is mostly included in the civil engineering curriculum, is discussed later in Chapter 18. Some other important machine members include cylinders and spheres under internal or external pressures; flywheels, discs and cylinders, which rotate while performing the required function, are covered in chapters 13 and 14. Design of mechanical members is mostly based on certain criteria of failure, and various theories based on the same are taken up in Chapter 15. Chapter 16 illustrates how circular plates are stressed under concentrated and uniform loads. The properties of materials as well as the methods to determine the same are discussed in Chapter 19. The first edition of the book aimed at providing the rudiments of the subject in a simple manner for easy comprehension by students. Simple mathematical derivations were favoured instead of more elegant but perplexed ones so that those with limited mathematical skills could easily grasp the essence. However, t0 make the book more purposeful and acceptable to a wider section of users, the present edition aims at making, it more exhaustive. Many new sections under various chapters have been added apart from rewriting of some of the previous sections. Many more worked-out examples as well as unsolved problems have been added. The objective type questions, which had been contained in an appendix in the previous edition, are now provided at the end of each chapter as was suggested by most of the readers. Effort has been made to eliminate all sorts of errors and misprints as far as possible. In spite of the addition of a large amount of ‘material, care has been taken to let the book remain concise and compact. Though students are expected to exert and solve the numerical problems given at the end of each chapter, hints to most of these are available at the publisher's website of the book for the benefit of average and weak students. However, full solutions of the unsolved problems are available to the faculty members at the same site. The facility can be availed by logging on to https://www.mhhe.convrattan/som2.

An engineer always endeavours to have such designs that are safe, durable and economical. Thus, load-carrying capacity of the members being designed is of paramount impor- tance to know their dimensions to minimise the cost. The subject Strength of Materials deals with the strength or the load-carrying capacity of various members such as beams and columns. It also considers their stability and rigidity. Theory of Structures involves the application of these principles to structures made up of beams, columns, slabs and arches. The force acting on a body is termed as load. A concen- trated load is also known as a point load, and a distributed load overa length is known as distributed load. A distributed load of constant value is called uniformly distributed load. Ifa structure as a whole is in equilibrium, its members are also in equilibrium individually which implies that the resultant of all the forces acting on a member must be zero. However, the forces acting on a body tend to deform or tear the body. For example, a load P acting on. a body tends to pull it apart (Fig. |.I3).This type of pull ‘may also be applied if one end of the body is fixed (Fig. |. 1b). In this case, the balancing force is provided by the reaction of the fixed end, Sueh type of a pulling force is known as tension or tensile force.A tensile force tends to Chapter Simple Stress and Strain ee x » © Fig.t increase the length and decrease the cross-section of the body. Ina similar way,a force tending to push or compress a body is known as compression or compressive force which tends to shorten the length (Fig. I.I¢) Usually the forces acting on a body along the longi- tudinal axis are known as direct or axial forces, and the forces acting normal to the longitudinal axis of a body are known as transverse or normal forces. In the elementary theory of analysis, a material subjected to external forces is assumed to be perfectly clastic, ie., the deformations caused to the body totally disappear as soon as the load or forces are removed. ‘Other assumptions are that the materials are isotropic (same properties in all directions) and homogeneous (same properties anywhere in the body) a eee 1, STRESS ‘The applied external forces on a body are transmitted to the supports through the material of the body. This phenomenon tends to deform the body and causes it to develop equal and opposite internal forces. These internal forces by virtue of cohesion between particles of the material tend to resist the deformation. The ‘magnitude of the internal resisting forces is equal to the applied forces but the direction is opposite. Let the member shown in Fig. 1.12 be cut through the section X-X as shown in Fig, 1.2. Now, each segment ‘ of the member is in equilibrium under the action of the + | force P and the internal resisting force. The resisting °*— i force per unit area of the surface is known as intensity : of stress or simply stress and is denoted by @. Thus, if x the load P is assumed as uniformly distributed over a Fig.12 sectional area 4, then the stress is given by o= PIA ay However, ifthe intensity of stress is not uniform throughout the body, then the stress at any point is defined as 0 = BP/6A where 64 = infinitesimal area of cross-section and P= load applied on area 64 ‘The stress may be tensile or compressive depending upon the nature of forces applied on the body. Stress at the elastic limit is usually referred as proof stress. Units ‘The unit of stress is N/m? or Pascal (Pa). However, this is a very small unit, almost the stress due to placing an apple on an area of 1 m, Thus, it is preferable to express stress in units of MN/m? or MPa. 1 MN/m? = 1 MPa = 1X 10©N/m? = 1 N/mm? Also 1 GPa = 1000 MPa = 1000 N/mm? = 1 kN/mt In numerical problems, it is always convenient to express the units of stress mentioned in MPa and GPa in the form of N/mm? 1. SHEAR STRESS ‘When two equal and opposite parallel forces not in the same fine act on two parts of a body, then one part tends to slide over or shear from the other across any section and the stress developed is termed as shear stress. In Figs. 1.3 a and b, the material is sheared along any section X-X whereas in a riveted joint (Fig. 3c), the shearing is across the rivet diameter. If P is the force applied and A is the area being sheared, then the intensity of shear stress is given by 7=PIA (2) and if the intensity of shear stress varies over an area, 1 = 8P/6A Remember that shear stress is always tangential to the area over which it acts. SHEARING Pp © Complimentary Shear Stress Consider an infinitely small rectangular element ABCD under shear stress of intensity r acting on planes AD and BC as shown in Fig. 1.4a, Itis clear from the figure that the shear stress acting on the element will tend to rotate the block in the clockwise direction. As there is no other force acting on the element, static equilibrium of the element can only be attained if another couple of the same magnitude is applied in the counter-clockwise direction. This can be achieved by having shear stress of intensity 7’ on the faces AB and CD (Fig. 1.4b).. ° c orx——— 1 Ff r y | t AR « —>18 i—r8 Fig.t4 Assuming xand y to be the lengths of the sides AB and BC of the rectangular element and a unit thickness perpendicular to the figure, The force of the given couple = =F (y 1) The moment of the given couple = (7+ y)+x ‘Similarly, The force of balancing couple = +" +(x 1) The moment of balancing couple =(7" + x)-y For equilibrium, equating the two, (reyyrx or 7 which shows that the magnitude of the balancing shear stresses is the same as of the applied stresses. The shear stresses on the transverse pair of faces are known as complimentary shear stresses. Thus every shear stress is always accompanied by an equal complimentary shear stress on perpendicular planes. The presence of complimentary shear stress may cause an early failure of anisotropic materials such as timber which is weaker in shear along the grain than normal to the grain. ‘* Owing to the characteristic of complimentary shear stresses for the equilibrium of members subjected 10 shear stresses, near a free boundary on which no external force acts, the shear stress must follow a direction parallel to the boundary. This is because any component of the shear force perpendicular to the surface will find no complimentary shear stress on the boundary plane. 4 |] serengen of teriats 1. SAINT-VENANT’S PRINCIPLE According to this principle, the distribution of internal stresses or strains on sections of a body, which are at sufficient distance from the surfaces of the load applications, is not affected by the nature of actual application of load over the surface. Thus, in case of a rod under simple tension, the load applied may be centrally r{ be nn concentrated (Fig, 1.Sa), distributed over the outer circumference (Fig. 1.5b), distributed in a circular @ © way on the end surface (Fig. 1.5e) or uniformly distributed over the end surface (Fig. 1.5d), the nn: Pp an; distribution of stresses is found to be uniformly distributed in all types of loading for points distant © © more than about two to three times the diameter of rere the rod. Figure 1.6a shows a member having two rigid plates attached at the two ends, When the loads are applied at the centre of each plate, the plates move towards each other causing the member to be shorter while increasing the lateral dimensions of the member. It can safely be assumed thatthe plane sections will remain plane and all elements of a the member deform in the same way. In such a case, the distribution of strains throughout the member is uniform, ie. the axial and lateral strains are constant. However, ifthe plates are removed and the concen- trated loads are applied directly as shown in Fig. 1.6b, the elements near the points of applications of loads deform appreciably while no deformation takes place atthe corners resulting in very large stresses in the vicinity of points of application of loads and almost no deformation near the ends. But ifthe elements farther and farther from the ends are observed, a more nearly uniform distribution ofthe strains and stresses across a section is obtained. ) Fig.1.6 STRAI The deformation of a body under a load is proportional to its length. To study the behaviour of a material, it is convenient to study the deformation per unit length of a body than its total deformation, The elongation per unit length of a body is known as longitudinal strain ot simply strain and is denoted by Greek symbol e. If A is the elongation of a body of length Z, the strain « is given by e= ML (3) is dimensionless. Asit s a ratio of similar quantities, Shear Strain A rectangular element of a body is distorted by shear stresses as shown in Fig. 1.7. If the lower surface is assumed to be fixed, the upper surface slides relative to the lower surface and the comer angles are altered by angle g. Shear strain is defined as the change in the right angle of the element measured in radians and is dimensionless. MODULUS OF ELASTICITY AND MODULUS OF RIGIDITY For elastic bodies, the ratio of stress to strain is constant and is known as Young's modulus or the modulus of elasticity and is denoted by E, i., E=ole (4) Strain has no units as itis a ratio. Thus, £ has the same units as stress. ‘The materials that maintain this ratio are said to obey Hooke’s law which states that within elastic limits, strain is proportional to the stress producing it. The elastic limit of a material is determined by plotting a tensile test diagram (Refer Section 1.15). ‘Young's modulus is the stress required to cause a unit strain, As a unit strain means elongation of a body equal to its original length (since ¢ = A/L), this implies that Young’s modulus is the stress or the force required per unit area to elongate the body by its original size or to cause the length to be doubled. However, for most. of the engineering materials, the strain does not exceed 1/1000. Obviously, mild steel has a much higher value of Young’s modulus E as compared to rubber. Similarly, for elastic materials, the shear strain is found to be proportional to the applied shear stress within the elastic limit. Modulus of rigidity or shear modulus denoted by Gis the ratio of shear stress to shear strain, ie, Garp (15) 1.6 ELONGATION OF A BAR ‘An expression for the elongation of a bar of length L and cross-sectional area A under the action of a force P is obtained below: 2 o-2 on Ase=f os z o-L_ PL r a2 hk Ph Thus, elongation of a bar of length L, A= “=== (1.6) 1 PRINCIPLE OF SUPERPOSITION The principle of superposition states that if a body is acted upon by a number of loads on various segments of a body, then the net effect on the body is the sum of the effects caused by each of the loads acting indepen- dently on the respective segment of the body. Thus, each segment can be considered for its equilibrium. This is done making a diagram of the segment along with various forces acting on it. This diagram is generally referred as free-body diagram. The principle of superposition is applicable to all parameters like stress, strain and deflection. However, it is not applicable to materials with nonlinear stress-strain characteristics which do not follow Hooke’s law. 6 | secengen of Materia Example 141 || Acirlar steel bar of various cross sections subjcted toa pul of800 KN as shown nig.
