CE6306 STRENGTH OF MATERIALS LTPC

3104
OBJECTIVES:
 To understand the stresses developed in bars, compounds bars, beams, shafts, cylinders
and spheres.

UNIT I STRESS, STRAIN AND DEFORMATION OF SOLIDS 9

Rigid bodies and deformable solids – Tension, Compression and Shear Stresses – Deformation
of simple and compound bars – Thermal stresses – Elastic constants – Volumetric strains –
Stresses on inclined planes – principal stresses and principal planes – Mohr’s circle of stress.

UNIT II TRANSVERSE LOADING ON BEAMS AND STRESSES IN BEAM 9

Beams – types transverse loading on beams – Shear force and bending moment in beams –
Cantilevers – Simply supported beams and over – hanging beams. Theory of simple bending–
bending stress distribution – Load carrying capacity – Proportioning of sections – Flitched beams
– Shear stress distribution.

UNIT III TORSION 9

Torsion formulation stresses and deformation in circular and hollows shafts – Stepped shafts–
Deflection in shafts fixed at the both ends – Stresses in helical springs – Deflection of helical
springs, carriage springs.

UNIT IV DEFLECTION OF BEAMS 9

Double Integration method – Macaulay’s method – Area moment method for computation of
slopes and deflections in beams - Conjugate beam and strain energy – Maxwell’s reciprocal
theorems.

UNIT V THIN CYLINDERS, SPHERES AND THICK CYLINDERS 9

Stresses in thin cylindrical shell due to internal pressure circumferential and longitudinal stresses
and deformation in thin and thick cylinders – spherical shells subjected to internal pressure –
Deformation in spherical shells – Lame’s theorem.
TOTAL (L:45+T:15): 60 PERIODS
OUTCOMES:
 Upon completion of this course, the students can able to apply mathematical knowledge to
calculate the deformation behavior of simple structures.
 Critically analyse problem and solve the problems related to mechanical elements and analyse the
deformation behavior for different types of loads.
