The course deals with the basic concepts of mechanics of elastic bodies. Students learn about design and evaluation of mechanical structures. Main topics of the course after the weeks of instruction:
1) Assumptions solving problems of elasticity and strength.
2) Tension and Compression. The tensile test of material.
3) Tension and Compression. The calculation of stress and strain with own weight.
4) The theory of stress.
5) Calculation of strain under multiaxial stress state. Extended Hooke's law. Hypotheses of strength.
6) Second moment of area.
7) Simple shear. Torsion bars of circular and annular cross-section.
8) Plane bending of straight beams. Internal normal forces, shear force and bending moment.
9) Calculation of normal stress on bending. Components of deformation during bending.
10) Strain energy in bending. Castiglian method.
11) Stability of straight bars. Euler and Tetmajerovo solving the critical buckling force.
12) Combined stress. Composite bending and tension. Bending and twisting.
13) Fatigue of materials. Limit material states (fatigue, creep).
14) Introduction to the numerical methods. Overview of experimental methods.
