Outline and Purpose of the Course This course provides fundamental concepts of solid mechanics such as stress, strain, and constitutive laws, and methods for analyzing stress/strain fields and deformation of solids and structures on the basis of the concepts. In particular, the course lectures theories of nonlinear problems such as plasticity and creep, and their numerical solutions, or finite element methods, which are important for design and development of mechanical structures.
Course Goals Students will be able to:
understand solid mechanics deeply and acquire basic knowledge to design mechanical structures.
analyze problems of plasticity and creep by finite element methods.
