Strength of Materials

Author : R.K. Kaushik

"This book comprehensively covers all the major topics involving application of concepts of strength of materials which a mechanical engineer encounters day to day. Structural and machine elements which come under the purview of this subject and covered in the book are: beams of all kinds; thin and thick cylinders and spherical cells; columns and struts; bars; discs and cylinders; springs; frames; dams; trusses and so on. Solid mechanics parameters covered in the book are all the types of stresses and strains, torsion, bending moments, moments of inertia, centre of gravity, elastic constants, and so on. Various theories of elastic failure have been covered in a focused chapter. A dedicated chapter on mechanical testing of materials will aid students in understanding how strength of materials is determined in laboratory conditions. Learning Aids:

• At the end of the chapters a large number (more than 300) of questions have been given

• The text is supplemented with line diagrams/pictures profusely so that the students can understand the concepts easily.

• The topics are discussed in a sequence of gradually increasing level of difficulty, so that it is easier for the students to follow the topics after building appropriate background strongly

• Relatively difficult topics like principal stresses, theory of failure, bending of curved bars, thick cylinders, strain energy, continuous beams, fixed beams, etc., have been treated with special care to see that the material is accessible to all students.

With its coverage and approach, this book will be immensely useful to the students of B. Tech (Mechanical Engineering) as well as that of A.M.I.E. (India). It will also be useful for competitive examinations like GATE, IES and civil services. "
