ADVANCED MECHANICS OF SOLIDS

M.Tech I Year I Semester (R22)

Course Objectives

This course is concerned with the development of analytical methods for solving

problems in mechanics of materials that are generally considered beyond the scope of basic course in the discipline.

Course outcomes: After completing this course, the student should be able to

  • Determined the point of location of applied load to avoid twisting in thin sections used in aerospace applications.
  • Understand the concept of distinguish between neutral and centroidal axes in curved beams.
  • Understanding the analogy models developed for analyzing the non-circular bars subjected to torsion, and also analyzing the stresses developed between rolling bodies and stress in three dimensional bodies.
