Mechanics of Solids is a comprehensive textbook that delves into the behavior of solid materials under diverse loading conditions, emphasizing fundamental concepts and principles of statics and stress analysis. Serving as the primary recommended text for university undergraduates pursuing a course in mechanics of solids, it is indispensable reading for mechanical engineering students as well as those enrolled in various civil, structural, aeronautical, and other engineering disciplines. The mathematics in this book has been designed to be accessible and straightforward, with ample worked examples employed to reinforce key concepts. Practical stress and strain scenarios are extensively covered, encompassing simple stress and strain, torsion, bending, elastic failure, and buckling. Numerous examples are provided, particularly focusing on thin-walled structures, beams, struts, and composite structures.
In this third edition, notable additions include new chapters on matrix algebra, linear elastic fracture mechanics, material property considerations, and further exploration of strain energy methods. Furthermore, the companion website www.routledge.com/cw/bird offers comprehensive solutions to all 575 additional problems in the text, multiple-choice tests, a list of essential formulae, resources for course instructors, and several practical demonstrations conducted by Professor Ross.
By comprehensively covering the mechanics of solids, this textbook equips students with the knowledge and skills necessary to understand the behavior of solid materials in a wide range of engineering applications. Its clear explanations, practical examples, and extensive resources make it an invaluable resource for both undergraduate and graduate students in the field of mechanical engineering.
