PHEN 3120 Mechanics of Materials

This class will include determination of stresses, deflections, and stability of deformable bodies. Topics covered include statically indeterminate problems in axially loaded bars; normal shear stress in symmetrically loaded beams; normal and shear stress in unsymmetrically loaded beams; deflections in beams and statically indeterminate beam problems; structural analysis using energy methods; stability of columns and allowable loads.
