Strength of materials is a branch of applied mechanics that deals with the behavior of
solid bodies subjected to various types of loading. The solid bodies include axially-loaded
bars, shafts, beams, and columns. The objective of analysis will be the determination of the
stresses, strains, and deformations produced by the loads.
Simple Stress ():
If a cylindrical bar is subjected to a direct pull or push along its axis, then it is
said to be subjected to tension or compression.
Tension
Compression
In SI systems of units load is measured in Newton (N) or Kiloewton (KN) or

Meganewton (MN).
Normal stress () : is the intensity of normal force per unit area
Stress =

Load
Area
P
A
stress may thus be compressive or tensile depending on the nature of the load and will be
measured in units of Newton per square meter (N/m2). This unit, called Pascal
1 Pa=1 N/m2
1 KPa=1000 Pa=103 Pa
1 MPa=106 Pa
1 GPa=109 Pa
In the U.S. customary or foot-pound-second system of units, express stress in
pounds per square inch (Psi) or kilopound per square inch (Ksi)
Normal Strain ():
If a bar is subjected to a direct load, and hence a stress, the bar will change in
length. If the bar has an original length (L) and changes in length by an amount (L), the
strain produced is defined as follows:
Strain()=
change in length
original length
L

P
L
Strain is thus a measure of the deformation of the material and is non-dimensional,

i.e. it has no units. Tensile stresses and strains are considered positive sense. Compressive
stresses and strains are considered negative in sense.
Shear Stress () and Bearing Stress (b ):
Shearing
stress differs from both tensile and compressive stress in that it is

caused by forces acting along or parallel to the area resisting the forces, whereas tensile
and compressive stresses are caused by forces perpendicular to the areas on which they act.
For this reason, tensile and compressive stresses are called normal stresses, whereas a
shearing stress may be called a tangential stress.
A shearing stress is produced whenever the applied loads cause one section of a
body to tend to slide past its adjacent section.

Bearing stress is a normal stress that is produced by the compression of one

surface against another. The bearing area is defined as the projected area of the curved
bearing surface.

Consider the bolted connection shown above, this connection consists of a flat bar
A, a clevis C, and a bolt B that passes through holes in the bar and clevis. Consider the
bearing stresses labeled 1, the projected area Ab on which they act is rectangle having a
height equal to the thickness of the clevis and a width equal to the diameter of the bolt, the
bearing force Fb represented by the stresses labeled 1 is equal to P/2. The same area and the
same force apply to the stresses labeled 3. For the bearing stresses labeled 2, the bearing
area Ab is a rectangle with height equal to the thickness of the flat bar and width equal to
the bolt diameter. The corresponding bearing force Fb is equal to the load P.
Shear Strain ( ):
Shear strain is a measure of the distortion of the element due to shear. Shear
strain is measured in radians and hence is non-dimensional, i.e. it has no units.
Elastic Materials-Hook's Law:
A material is said to be elastic if it returns to its original, when load is

removed. In elastic material, stress is proportional to strain. Hook's law therefore states
that:
Stress ( ) strain ( )
stress
constant
strain
Within the elastic limit, i.e. within the limits in which Hook's law applies, it has
been shown that:
This constant is given the symbol E and termed the modulus of elasticity or
Young's modulus.
Poisson's Ratio ( ):
Consider the rectangular bar shown below subjected to a tensile load. Under
the action of this load the bar will increase in length by an amount L giving a longitudinal
strain in the bar of:
L
L
L
The bar will also exhibit a reduction in dimensions laterally i.e. its breadth and
depth will both reduce.

The associated lateral strains will both be equal, will be of opposite sense to the
longitudinal strain, and will be given by:

Modulus of Rigidity ( G ):
For materials within the elastic range the shear strain is proportional to the shear
stress producing it.

The constant G is termed the modulus of rigidity.

Thermal Stresses:
A change in temperature can cause a material to change its dimensions. If the

temperature increases, generally a material expands, whereas if the temperature decreases
the material will contract.
The deformation of a member having a length L can be calculated using the
formula:
T=TL
T=

T=ET
: Linear coefficient of thermal expansion. The units measure strain per degree of
temperature. They are (1/F) in the foot-pound-second system and (1/C) or (1/K) in SI
system.
T: Change in temperature of the member.
L: The original length of the member.
T: The change in length of the member.

supports when T1=60 F. If the temperature is raised to T2=120 F determine the average

Example 18: The rigid bar AD is pinned at A and attached to the bars BC and ED as
shown. The entire system is initially stress-free and the weights of all bars are negligible.

Neglecting any possibility of lateral buckling, find the normal stresses in bars BC and ED.
For BC, which is brass, assume E=90 GPa, =2010-6 1/K and for ED, which is steel,
take =1210-6 1/K, E=200 GPa. The cross-sectional area of BC is 500 mm2, of ED is

Torsion:
Torque is a moment that tends to twist a member about its longitudinal axis.
When the torque is applied, the circles and longitudinal grid lines originally marked on the
shaft tend to distort into the pattern shown below.
T
Before deformation
After deformation
Twisting causes the circles to remain circles and each longitudinal grid line
deforms into a helix that intersects the circles at equal angles. Also, the cross sections at
the ends of the shaft remain flat that is, they do not warp or bulge in or out and radial lines
on these ends remain straight during the deformation.
The Torsion Formula:
Consider a uniform circular shaft is subjected to a torque it can be shown

that every section of the shaft is subjected to a state of pure shear.

Angle of Twist ():
If a shaft of length L is subjected to a constant twisting moment along its
length, then the angle of twist through which one end of the shaft will twist relative to the
other is:
TL
GJ
T
L
G: The shear modulus of elasticity or

modulus of rigidity.
: Angle of twist, measured in rad
r
25
If the shaft is subjected to several different torques or the cross sectional area or
shear modulus changes from one region to the next. The angle of twist of one end of the
shaft with respect to the other is then found from:

TL
GJ
In order to apply the above equation, we must develop a sign convention for the
internal torque and the angle of twist of one end of the shaft with respect to the other end.
To do this, we will use the right hand rule, whereby both the torque and angle of twist will
be positive, provided the thumb is directed outward from the shaft when the fingers curl to
give the tendency for rotation.

Power Transmission (P):
Shaft and tubes having circular cross sections are often used to transmit
power developed by a machine.
P T

dt
: The shaft's angular velocity (rad/s).

P T
In SI units power is expressed in (watts) when torque is measured in (N.m) and

in (rad/s).
1 W=1 N.m/s
In the foot-pound-second or FPS system the units of power are (ft.lb/s); however
horsepower (hp) is often used in engineering practice where:
1 hp=550 ft.lb/s
For machinery the frequency of a shaft's rotation f is often reported. This is a
measured of the number of revolutions or cycles the shaft per second and is expressed in
hertz (1 Hz=1 cycle/s), 1 cycle=2 rad, then =2f
P=2fT
Example 19: If a twisting moment of 1 KN.m is impressed upon a 50 mm diameter shaft,

what is the maximum shearing stress developed? Also what is the angle of twist in a 1 m
length of the shaft? The material is steel, for which G=85 GPa.

Thin walled tubes having closed cross sections:

Shear flow(q): is the product of the tube's thickness and the average shear stress. This value
is constant at all points along the tube's cross section. As a result, the largest average shear
stress on the cross section occurs where the tube's thickness is smallest.

Thin Walled Cylinder, Thin Walled Pressure Vessels:
Cylindrical or spherical vessels are commonly used in industry to serve as boilers

or tanks. When under pressure, the material of which they are made is subjected to a
loading from all directions. In general "thin wall" refers to a vessel having an inner radius
to wall thickness ratio of 10 or more (r/t 10)
1. Cylindrical Vessels:
Consider the cylindrical vessel having a wall thickness t and inner radius r as
shown below. A pressure p is developed within the vessel by a containing gas or fluid,
which is assumed to have negligible weight.
The stresses set up in the walls are:

Vessels Subjected to Fluid Pressure:
If a fluid is used as the pressurization medium the fluid itself will change in
volume as pressure is increased and this must be taken into account when calculating the
amount of fluid which must be pumped into the cylinder in order to raise the pressure by a
specific amount.
The bulk modulus of a fluid is defined as:

Example 33: a) A sphere 1m internal diameter and 6 mm wall thickness is to be pressure

tested for safety purposes with water as the pressure medium. Assuming that the sphere is
initially filled with water at atmospheric pressure, what extra volume of water is required
to be pumped in to produce a pressure of 3 MN/m2 gauge? For water k=2.1 GN/m2
b) The sphere is now placed in service and filled with gas until there is a volume change of
7210-6 m3. Determine the pressure exerted by the gas on the walls of the sphere. c) To
what value can the gas pressure be increased before failure occurs according to the
maximum principal stress theory of elastic failure? E=200 GPa, =0.3 and the yield stress

Shear and Moment Diagram:
Beams
are long straight members that carry loads perpendicular to their

longitudinal axis. They are classified according to the way they are supported, e.g. simply
supported, cantilevered, or overhanging.
Simply supported beam

P
Cantilevered beam
Types of Loading:
Loads commonly applied to a beam may consist of concentrated forces(applied at

a point), uniformly distributed loads, in which case the magnitude is expressed as a certain
number of newtons per meter of length of the beam, or uniformly varying loads. A beam
may also be loaded by an applied couple.

(concentrated force)

5m
Uniformly distributed load
Uniformly varying load
Shearing force and bending moment diagrams show the variation of these
quantities along the length of a beam for any fixed loading condition. At every section in a
beam carrying transverse loads there will be resultant forces on either side of the section
which, for equilibrium, must be equal and opposite.
Shearing force at the section is defined as the algebraic sum of the forces taken on
one side of the section. The bending moment is defined as the algebraic sum of the
moments of the forces about the section, taken on either side of the section.
Sign Convention:
Forces upwards to the left of a section or downwards to the right of a section are
positive. Clockwise moments to the left and counter clockwise to the right are positive.

V -
Procedure of Analysis:
The shear and moment diagrams for a beam can be constructed using the
following procedure:1. Determine all the reactive forces and couple moments acting on the beam, and
resolve all the forces into components acting perpendicular and parallel to the beam's
axis.
2. Specify separate coordinates x having an origin at the beam's left end extending to
regions of the beam between concentrated forces and/or couple moments, or where
there is no discontinuity of distributed loading.
3. Section the beam perpendicular to its axis at each distance x, and draw the free body
diagram of one of the segments. Be sure V and M are shown acting in their positive
sense, in accordance with the sign convention given as above.
4. The shear is obtained by summing forces perpendicular to the beam's axis.
5. The moment is obtained by summing moment about the sectioned end of the
segment.
53
6. Plot the shear diagram(V versus x) and the moment diagram(M versus x). If
numerical values of the functions describing V and M are positive, the values are
plotted above the x-axis, whereas negative values are plotted below the axis.
Example 33: Draw the shear and moment diagrams for the beam shown below.

Slope of moment diagram at each point=shear at each point.

When the force acts downward on the beam, V is negative so the shear will jump
downward. Likewise, if the force acts upward, the jump will be upward.
If moment Mo is applied clockwise on the beam, M is positive so the moment
diagram will jump upward. Likewise, when Mo acts counterclockwise, the jump will
be downward.

Stresses in Beams:
Pure bending refers to flexure of a beam under a constant bending moment.

Therefore, pure bending occurs only in regions of a beam where the shear force is zero.
Nonuniform bending refers to flexure in the presence of shear forces, which means that the
bending moment changes as we move along the axis of the beam.

Pure bending
Assumptions:
1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
6.
The beam is initially straight and unstressed.

The material of the beam is perfectly homogeneous.
The elastic limit is nowhere exceeded.
Young's modulus for the material is the same in tension and compression.
Plane cross-sections remain plane before and after bending.
Every cross-section of the beam is symmetrical about the plane of bending i.e. about
an axis perpendicular to the N.A.
7. There is no resultant force perpendicular to any cross-section.
If we now considered a beam initially unstressed and subjected to a constant bending
moment along its length, i.e. pure bending as would be obtained by applying equal couples
at each end, it will bend to a radius as shown below.
72
As a result of this bending the top fibers of the beam will be subjected to
compression and the bottom to tension. Its reasonable to suppose, that somewhere between
the two there are points at which the stress is zero, these points is termed the neutral axis.
The neutral axis will always pass through the centre of area or centroid.
The length L1 of the line ef after bending takes place is:
L1=(-y)d
d=

L1=(1-

The original length of line ef is dx

where k is the curvature.
The longitudinal normal strain will vary linearly with y from the neutral axis. A

elongation (+x) will occur in fibers located below the neutral axis (-y).

Curved Beams
Due to the curvature of the beam, the normal strain in the beam does not vary linearly with depth as in the
case of a straight beam .As result, the neutral axis does not pass through the centroid of the cross section.

Theorem 1 The angle between the tangents at any two points on the elastic curve equals
the area under the M/EI diagram between these two points.
If the area under M/EI diagram is positive, the angle is measured counterclockwise
from the tangent A to tangent B.
If the area under M/EI diagram is negative, the angle B / A is measured clockwise from
tangent A to tangent B. B / A will measured in radians.

Theorem 2 The vertical deviation of the tangent at a point A on the elastic curve with
respect to the tangent extended from another point B equals the moment of the area under
the M/EI diagram between these two points. This moment is computed about point A
where the vertical deviation t A / B is to be determined.

Moment Area Method(Statically Indeterminate):

Since application of the moment area theorems requires calculation of both the area
under the M/EI diagram and the centroidal location of this area, it is often convenient to
use separate M/EI diagrams for each of the known loads and redundant rather than using
the resultant diagram to compute these geometric quantities.
114

reactions of the supports. EI is constant.

Mohr's Circle
For plane stresses transformation have a graphical solution that is often convenient to use
and easy to remember. Furthermore this approach will allow us to visualize how the
normal and shear stress components x and x y vary as the plane on which they act is
oriented in different directions. This graphical solution known as Mohr's circle.

The parameter can be eliminated by squaring each equation and adding the equations
together. The result is:

) 2 xy
) 2 xy
this equation represents a circle having a radius R and center at point
(c,0).
Construction of the circle

1. Establish a coordinate system such that the abscissa represents the normal stress
with positive to the right and the ordinate represents the shear stress with positive
down ward.
2. Using the positive sign convention for xyxy as shown:
124
Plot the center of the circle C which is located on the axis at a distance avg
x y
2
from the origin.

3. Plot the reference point A having coordinate A( x , xy ). This point represents the
normal and shear stress components on the element's right hand vertical face, and
since the x axis coincides with the x axis, this represents =0.
4. Connect point A with the center C of the circle and determine CA by trigonometry.
This distance represents the radius R of the circle.
5. Once R has been determined , sketch the circle.
Principal Stresses
The principal stresses 1 and 2 (12) are represented by the two points B and D where
the circle intersects the axis i.e where =0.
These stresses act on planes defined by angles p1 and p2. They are represented on the
circle by angles 2p1 and 2p2and are measured from the radial reference line CA to line CB
and CD respectively.
Using trigonometry only one of these angles needs to be calculated from the circle since p1
and p2 are 90o apart.
125
Maximum in Plane Shear Stress.

The average normal stress and maximum in plane shear stress components are determined
from the circle as the coordinates of either point E or F. In this case the angles s1 and s2
give the orientation of the planes that contain these components. The angle 2 s1 can be
determined using trigonometry.
Stress on Arbitrary Plane.

The normal and shear stress components x and x y acting on a specified plane defined by
the angle can be obtained from the circle using trigonometry to determine the coordinates
of point P.
To locate P, the known angle for the plane must be measured on the circle in the same
direction 2 from the radial reference line CA to the radial line CP.
Example: Due to the applied loading the element at point A on the solid cylinder is
subjected to the state of stress shown. Determine the principal stresses acting at this point.

Columns
Columns are long slender members subjected to an axial compressive force. The force
may be large enough to cause the member to deflect laterally or sides way, this deflection
is called buckling.
Critical Load
The maximum axial load that a column support when it is on the verge of buckling is
called the critical load (Pcr).
Any additional loading will cause the column to buckle and therefore deflect laterally.
Ideal Column with Pin Supports

The column to beconsideredis an ideal column, meaning one that is perfectly straight
before loading, is made of homogeneous material, and upon which the load is
appliedthrough the centroid of the cross section. It is further assumed that the material
behaves in a linear-elastic manner and that the column buckles or bends in a single
plane.
138
In order to determine the critical load and the buckled shape of the column we will apply
the following equation:

The smallest value of P is obtained when n=1, so the critical load for the column is:

This load is sometimes referred to as the Euler load, n represents the number of waves in
the deflected shape of the column; if n=2 two waves will appear in the buckled shape and
the column will support a critical load that is 4Pcr.
The corresponding buckled shape is:

v C1 sin(
x

L
The constant C1 represent the maximum deflection vmax which occurs at the midpoint of the
column.
It is important to realize that the column will buckle about the principal axis of cross
section having the least moment of inertia(the weakest axis). For example a column having
a rectangular cross section as shown below will buckle about the a-a axis not the b-b axis.
As a result engineers usually try to achieve a balance keeping the moments of inertia the
same in all directions
