Learning outcomes |
Starting from matrix algebra and statics, the main objective is the study of solid mechanics using the concepts of continuum mechanics. In particular, different methodologies are used to describe the change in shape of a solid and the continuity conditions to define the strain at each point, to describe the internal stresses and equilibrium conditions with the stress state at each point, and the constitutive relationships that allow to relate stresses with strains, in particular the theory of elasticity. These concepts are applied to plane stress states, to determine stresses and strains in slender bars due to axial force, torsional moment, bending moment and shear force. These concepts are applied to the analytical structural calculus of simple geometry objects, and will allow in the future to extrapolate to the numerical structural calculus of generic geometry structures and boundary conditions.

Teaching Methodologies and Assessment Criteria |
The adopted teaching method combines theoretical exposition, in a 1st phase, with the resolution of practical cases, in a 2nd phase, covering the framework of the themes, concepts and theory, simplifying hypotheses and techniques inherent to each of the subjects to be teach. In order to accentuate the practical implications of the exposed subjects, practical exercises will be carried out in all chapters.
Attendance to classes aims to facilitate the apprehension and understanding of concepts, techniques and methods of analysis, and the interpretation of methods associated with the main approaches to continuum mechanics applied to solids.
The support elements for teaching the classes and solving the exercises by the students will be made available in the area of ??the curricular unit on the Moodle platform.
The evaluation criteria consist of the completion of two written tests throughout the semester, with a weight of 50% each. The contents to be evaluated in Exam include all.
