Mechanics of Materials is…
to study internal effects of stress and strain in a solid body
that is subjected to an external loading.

External loadings Different types of external loadings

Internal effects (loadings) Structures, positions etc.

Stress Cross-sectional area etc..

Strain (deformation) Materials etc..

Failure
 Crane

Pad
Bearing pads
Supporting mat

When cranes are supported using bearing pads for their stability, a large stress is developed
between the pad and the supporting surface.
• How can we ensure that the supporting mat is not crashed by the compressive stress?
 Wheel Force

Shaft

When we rotate a wheel, the shaft attached to the center of the wheel is subjected to a
torque developed by the force applied to the wheel.
• How can we design the wheel and the shaft ensuring that the maximum stress
developed in the shaft must be resisted by the shaft and prevent any failure?
Course Overview
(1) Define Stress and Strain Chap 1,2
(2) Describe the stress-strain curves of different materials Chap 3
(3) Stress-strain behavior under different loadings and combined loadings
Chap 4-8
(4) Stress/Strain Transformation Chap 9-10
(5) Deflection of Beams and Shafts Chap 12
(6) Buckling of Columns Chap 13

Axial loads Shear loads

Chap. 1 Stress

• Chapter Objectives
 Understand the concepts of normal and shear stress
 Analyze and design of members subjected on axial load or shear
Equilibrium of the Deformable Body (1.2)
(1) External Loads
(a) Surface Forces : caused by the direct contact of one body with the
surface of another
Distributed
Concentrated
Load
Force

• The resultant force FR of w(x) = the area under the

distributed loading curve, which acts through the
centroid C or geometric center of this area.
C

FR
(b) Body Forces : developed when one body applies a force on another body
without direct physical contact.
ex) the earth’s gravitation/ electromagnetic field
(2) Support Reactions
• Reactions : the surface forces that develop at the points of contact between
bodies.

• For two-dimensional problems(coplanar force systems)

• If the support prevents translation in a given direction, then a force must be developed
on the member in that direction.
• If rotation is prevented, a moment must be applied on the member.

• Does the support prevent translation in x (or y) direction or rotation??

Question: Determine the support reactions.

(3) Equations of Equilibrium
• Equilibrium of a body
 a balance of forces and a balance of moments.

ΣF=0, ΣMO=0
ΣF = the sum of all the forces acting on the body
ΣM = the sum of the moments of all the forces about any point O

• In x,y,z coordination system,

ΣFx=0, ΣFy=0, ΣFz=0

ΣMx=0, ΣMy=0, ΣMz=0

In a system of coplanar forces,

ΣFx=0, ΣFy=0, ΣMO=0 * All the moments are summed about point O and
so they will be directed along the z axis
 (4) Internal Resultant Loadings

• Four different types of resultant loadings

Direction (to the
Force Tendency
sectioned area)
Perpendicular Normal force, N pushing or pulling on the body
FR
Parallel Shear force, V sliding over the other body
Torsional moment T twisting the body about an axis perpendicular to
Perpendicular
(torque) the area
MRo
bending the body about an axis lying within the
Parallel Bending moment, M
plane of the area
Fundamental F1-4 Determine the resultant internal normal force, shear
force and bending moment at point C in the beam
 Determine the resultant internal loadings acting on the cross section at C of
Example 1.1 the cantilevered beam shown in Fig. 1-4a.
 The 500-kg engine is suspended from the crane boom in Figure.
Example 1.2 Determine the resultant internal loadings acting on the cross
section of the boom at point E
