Strength Of Materials (3/e With S. I. Units)

0.0

Strength of Materials covers the study of the behaviour of structural and machine members under the action of external loads. Analysis is directed towards determining the limiting loads, that the member can stand before failure of the material or excessive deformation. To this end, three basic sets of relations can be obtained. The book highlights the mechanics of these conditions.
