Strength of Materials II

Code 14654
Year 3
Semester S1
ECTS Credits 6
Workload PL(30H)/T(30H)
Scientific area Mechanics and Structures
Entry requirements Statics and Continuous Solid Mechanics.
Learning outcomes The curricular unit aims to provide training in the following areas:
- Interaction between forces;
- Deviated compound flexion; - Deformation in structural elements (integration of the elastic line and use of energy theorems);
- Stability of compressed elements with the notion of imperfections and their effect, support conditions, and distinction between them;
- Hyperstatic beams;
- Models of non-elastic materials; Plastic bending of beams.
Syllabus 1 - Linear members subjected to interacting forces (M+V+T or N+T);
2 - Linear members subjected to axial force and bending moment (N+M);
3 - Deformation in structural elements (integration of the elastic line and energy theorems);
4 - Stability of structural elements against buckling;
5 - Statically indeterminate beams;
6 - Elastoplastic bending of beams.
