With emphasis on practical application, Stress Analysis with an Introduction to Finite Element Methods equips engineering students with a solid, foundational knowledge base in strength of materials, the theory of elasticity, structural stability, the theory of plates, finite element analysis, and other pertinent topics that will well prepare them for more advanced coursework. The book consists of ten chapters and five appendices. Opening chapters explore stress tensor, strain tensor, and the theory of elasticity. Additional chapters cover failure by yielding theories, bending of beams, torsion, and energy methods. Readers learn about structural stability and receive an introduction to the theory of plates and finite element analysis. The appendices equip readers with a review of vector algebra, analytic solution to a cubic equation, matrix algebra, area moments and product of inertia, and systems of units. Examples, references, and practice problems throughout the text test student knowledge and reinforce the learning material. Though Stress Analysis with an Introduction to Finite Element Methods covers topics generally covered in an advanced strength of materials course, the book is designed to be easy-to-understand and approachable. It is an exceptional resource for courses and programs in aerospace, civil, mechanical, and biomedical engineering, as well as practicing engineers.
