1. INTRODUCTION There are three fundamental areas of Engineering Mechanics: Statics Dynamics Strength of Materials
Statics & Dynamics Study of the external effects of forces on rigid bodies. Deformation of bodies can be neglected. Example P Bar is assumed to be rigid and strong enough to carry the loads
Strength of Materials Deals with the relationship between externally applied loads and their internal effects on bodies. Deformation of bodies cannot be neglected. Example P Investigates the bar to ensure that it is strong enough not to break and bend without supporting the load
Mechanical Design Requires both dimensions and material properties to satisfy the acceptable level of strength and rigidity. A structure and its elements should not break/deform excessively under loads. Engineering Parts strength small deflections due to imposed loads while in operation slender members should not buckle
1.1 Main Objectives of Strength of Materials Analysis of stress and deformation Determination of the largest load that a structure can sustain without any damage, failure or compromise of function Determination of body shape and section of the most suitable construction material that is capable of resisting the forces acting on the structure under specific environmental conditions.
1.2 Method of Analysis Mechanics of Materials theory uses assumptions, based on experimental Theory of Elasticity: Mathematical method that can provide exact results for simple problems, however, in general solutions are obtained with considerable difficulty.
Method of Equilibrium Can be used for the complete analysis of structural members, however, the following basic principles of analysis should be considered. STATICS: laws of forces DEFORMATIONS: laws of material deformations, e.g. Hook s Law GEOMETRY: deformation of adjacent portions of a member must be compatible.
Energy Methods Can be used as an alternative to the equilibrium methods in order to analyze the stress and deformations. Both methods can provide solutions of acceptable accuracy for simple problems and can be used as the basis for numerical methods in more complex problems.

Other Names 1. Strength of Materials 2. Mechanics of Materials 3. Introduction to Solid Mechanics 4. Mechanics of Deformable Bodies
Deformable Bodies Depends on equilibrium (statics) materials selection (e.g. wood, steel, concrete, aluminum) geometry
Fundamental Concepts Force Equilibrium Force - Deformation Behavior of Materials Geometry of Deformation
Fundamental Concepts Force Equilibrium Force Temperature - Deformation Behavior of Materials Geometry of Deformation
Deformable Body A solid body that changes size and/or shape as a result of loads that are applied to it or as a result of temperature changes.
Definition Changes in size and/or shape are referred to as deformations
Look at the Diving Board
A L 1 L 2 W M h c B
Statics Given W, L 1 and L 2 calculate: Reaction at A Reaction at B
Other Types of Questions 1. What weight W would break the board? 2. What is the relationship between d c and W? 3. Would a tapered board be better than a constant thickness board? 4. Would an aluminum board be preferable to a fiberglass or a wooden board?
Answers 1. Requires us to consider the diving board as a deformable body 2. Need to consider not only reaction forces but localized effects of forces (i.e. stress distribution and strain distribution) 3. Need to consider material behavior (stressstrain behavior)
Analysis and Design Strength Problems Stiffness Problems
Strength Problems Is the machine or structure strong enough? ------------------------------------- Will the object or structure or component support the loads to which it is subjected?
Stiffness Problems Is the machine or structure stiff enough? ---------------------------------------- What is the change in shape or deformation of the object due to the loads? Is its deformation within acceptable limits?
Questions 1. What weight W would break the board? (STRENGTH) 2. What is the relationship between d c and W? (STIFFNESS)
Other Questions What weight W would break the board? (ANALYSIS) What is the relationship between d c and W? (ANALYSIS) Does the thickness of the board, h, affect d c? Would an aluminum board deflect more or less than a fiberglass or a wooden board? Does the position of support B change any of the answers?

Fundamental Types of Equations The EQUILIBRIUM conditions must be satisfied. The GEOMETRY OF DEFORMATION must be described. The MATERIAL BEHAVIOR must be characterized.
Equilibrium External forces, including reactions must balance. This is basically an application of the concepts and principles of statics. It is essential that accurate and complete FREE BODY DIAGRAMS be drawn.
Geometry of Deformation 1. Definitions of extensional strain and shear strain. 2. Simplifications and idealizations. 3. Connectivity of members or geometric compatibility. 4. Boundary conditions and constraints.
Material Behavior Constitutive behavior of materials (force-temperature-deformation relationships) must be described. These relationships can only be established experimentally!
