Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the most important subjects for any student of engineering to master is the behaviour of materials and structures under load. The way in which they react to applied forces, the deflections resulting and the stresses and strains set up in the bodies concerned are all vital considerations when designing a mechanical component such that it will not fail under predicted load during its service lifetime.All the essential elements of a treatment of these topics are contained within this course of study, starting with an introduction to the concepts of stress and strain, shear force and bending moments and moving on to the examination of bending, shear and torsion in elements such as beams, cylinders, shells and springs. A simple treatment of complex stress and complex strain leads to a study of the theories of elastic failure and an introduction to the experimental methods of stress and strain analysis.More advanced topics are dealt with in a companion volume - Mechanics of Materials 2. Each chapter contains a summary of the essential formulae which are developed in the chapter, and a large number of worked examples which progress in level of difficulty as the principles are enlarged upon. In addition, each chapter concludes with an extensive selection of problems for solution by the student, mostly examination questions from professional and academic bodies, which are graded according to difficulty and furnished with answers at the end.* Emphasis on practical learning and applications, rather than theory* Provides the essential formulae for each individual chapter* Contains numerous worked examples and problems

Book excerpt: Focusing primarily on core topics in mechanical and electrical science, students enrolled on a wide range of higher education engineering courses at undergraduate level will find Engineering Science, second edition, an invaluable aid to their learning. With updated and expanded content, this new edition covers sections on the mechanics of materials, dynamics, thermodynamics, electrostatics and electromagnetic principles, and a.c./d.c. circuit theory. Entirely new sections are devoted to the study of gyroscopes and the effect of applied torques on their behaviour, and the use of Laplace transformation as a tool for modelling complex networks of inductance, capacitance and resistance. In addition, a new overview of the decibel (dB) introduces a handy technique for expressing logarithmic ratios. Knowledge-check and review questions, along with activities, are included throughout the book, and the necessary background mathematics is integrated alongside the appropriate areas of engineering. The result is a clear and easily accessible textbook that encourages independent study and covers the essential scientific principles that students will meet at this level. The book is supported with a companion website for students and lecturers at www.key2engineeringscience.com, and it includes: • Solutions to the Test Your Knowledge and Review Questions in the book • Further guidance on Essential Mathematics with introductions to vectors, vector operations, the calculus and differential equations, etc. • An extra chapter on steam properties, cycles and plant • Downloadable SCILAB scripts that help simplify some of the advanced mathematical content • Selected illustrations from the book

Book excerpt: The sixth edition of the book has thoroughly been modified and enlarged to meet the revised syllabi of many universities and other professional examination like AMIE and above all to incorporate the suggestions received from the students and faculty a like. Additional problems on two-dimensional complex stress systems have been fully solved by both analytical and Mohr'circlem method so that the readers are made aware of the face that the sign shear stress on a particular plane has its one important role to play so as arrive at the correct result which otherwise is normally overlooked or even sometimes neglected. The term " bending Moment" and "twisting Moment" have been introduced as vector quantities in order to bring out the difference between them so that the reader can easily decipher each of them and proceed ahead to accomplish the associated objectives. The chapter on Thick Cylinders had been re-written to keep uniformity in sign convention of the stresses throughout the entire text. Further in this chapter the process of auto frettage of a thick cylinder has been introduced along with the "Simplified" theory of this process. The author has endeavored to familiarize the readers with the "Yield point phenomenon of low carbon steel". "quantitative definitions of ductility and malleability" and "Negative Possions Ratio" Which were hitherto not dealt with in most of the text on the subject. On the specific demand of the students almost all the chapter have been supplemented with objective type questions along with more number of worked examples.
