Advanced Mechanics of Material: Solid Mechanics

This book contains data on stress strain relation, application of energy method, element theory of elasticity, static failure, fracture mechanics. All the advanced mechanics material topics are almost covered in this book.This textbook is intended for use in the first course of mechanics of materials. Programs of instruction relating to the mechanical sciences, such as mechanical, civil, and aerospace engineering, often require that students take this course in the second or third year of studies. Because of the fundamental nature of the subject matter, mechanics of materials is often a required course, or an acceptable technical elective in many other curricula.
