Outline of lecture

01.Mathematical preliminaries-index notation, vectors and tensors.
02.Traction vector, equilibrium equations, stress and strain tensors.
03.Governing equations in cylindrical polar coordinates.
04.Linear elasticity.
05.Elastostatic plane problems.

Purpose of lecture

The course is designed for the students to attain the following four objectives:

(1) Understand index notation used in equations in any subject area.

(2) Understand the fundamentals of stresses and strains.

(3) Obtain a good knowledge of linear elasticity.

(4) To be able to formulate and solve basic problems in solid mechanics.
