About this listen

Master the core principles of Mechanics of Materials for practical engineering design.This comprehensive deep dive establishes the foundational concepts of structural analysis, beginning with state properties, units, and conversion systems (SI and USCU) essential for precise calculations. Gain proficiency in analyzing beams and structural members by mastering the determination of geometrical properties like the centroid, moment of inertia, and radius of gyration for numerous cross-sections. Crucially, explore plastic design techniques, learning how to leverage concepts like the plastic section modulus (Z) and shape factor to determine the fully plastic bending moment and collapse load for ductile structures, such as those used in high-speed rail bridges, ensuring maximum efficiency and safety.
