Course Objectives The aim of this course is to provide the students with the basic knowledge of mechanics of deformable bodies.
Learning Outcomes The students who succeeded in this course;
  • Clarify the basic principles of strength of materials.
  • Define the concept of stress and strain.
  • Define the mechanical properties of materials.
  • Clarify the behavior of deformable bodies under the effect of axial load, shear force, bending moment and torsion.
  • Calculate the internal forces in structural systems.
  • Analyze the structural systems due to combined loading effects.
Course Description In this course, the mechanics of deformable bodies and the stress that occurs due to the external loadings is defined. The calculation of stresses for different loading effects, the internal force diagrams of beams will be defined. The definition of axial loading, bending, shear, torsion, and combined loading effects is examined.
