Annunci

Stress and Strain

Strain analysis. Displacement, deformation, infinitesimal strain tensor; spherical and deviatoric parts of the strain
tensor; principal strains and principal strain directions; plane strain state; internal compatibility equations.

Stress analysis. Mass density, contact and body forces, stress vector, stress tensor; spherical and deviatoric parts of
stress tensor; principal stresses and principal stress directions; plane stress states and Mohr circle; differential
equilibrium equations. Theorem of virtual work.

The book of Sokolnikoff (I.S. Sokolnikoff “Mathematical theory of elasticity”, McGraw-Hill) is recommended for the
study of the topics addressed in the first part of the course, dealing with continuum mechanics. Students unable to
attend lectures can use this book.

Elasticity

Constitutive equations. Linear elastic materials; elasticity tensor and specific strain energy. The symmetries and the
isotropy of the material; Lamé constants; Young modulus and Poisson ratio.

Two dimensional problems in elasticity. Airy function. Cartesian coordinate solutions using polynomials. Elastic
state in a gravity dam: isostatic lines. Two dimensional problems in polar coordinates: general equations. Stress
distribution symmetrical about an axis: stress distribution in a hollow cylinder submitted to uniform pressure on the
inner and outer surfaces. Stress state in a plate with a hole, subjected to uniform tensite stress. Half space under
concentrated surface force on a line of the boundary. 

The book by I.S.Sokolnikoff,  “Mathematical theory of elasticity”, McGraw-Hill, is recommended for the study of the
topics addressed in the first part of the course, dealing with continuum mechanics. Students unable to attend
lectures can use this book.

A broad discussion of two dimensional problems in elasticity is reported in S. Timoshenko, J.N. Goodier, “Theory of
elasticity”, McGraw-Hill.

The solution of the elastic state in a gravity dam is a special case taken from the paper 
 S. Bennati, M. Lucchesi,  "The minimal section of a triangular gravity dam", Meccanica, 1988, pp. 221-225.
