Mechanics of Materials presents the theory and practice of mechanics of materials in a straightforward, student-friendly manner that addresses the learning styles of today's students without sacrificing rigor or depth in the presentation of topics. From basic concepts of stress and strain to more advanced topics like beam deflections and combined loads, this book provides students with everything they need to embark on successful careers in materials and mechanical engineering. Laying an emphasis on critical thinking forms, this text focuses on helping learners develop practical skills, encouraging them to recognize fundamental concepts relevant to specific situations, identify equations needed to solve problems, and engage with literature in the field. ·Stress ·Strain ·Mechanical Properties of Materials ·Design Concepts ·Axial Deformation ·Torsion ·Equilibrium of Beams ·Bending ·Shear Stress in Beams ·Beam Deflections ·Statically Indeterminate Beams ·Stress Transformations ·Strain Transformations ·Pressure Vessels ·Combined Loads ·Columns ·Energy Methods

Timothy A. Philpot was an Associate Professor in the Department of Civil, Architectural, and Environmental Engineering at the Missouri University of Science and Technology (formerly known as the University of Missouri–Rolla). He was the developer of MDSolids and MecMovies, two award-winning instructional software packages. MDSolids–Educational Software for Mechanics of Materials won a 1998 Premier Award for Excellence in Engineering Education Courseware by NEEDS, the National Engineering Education Delivery System. Jeffery S. Thomas is an Associate Teaching Professor in the Department of Civil, Architectural, and Environmental Engineering at Missouri University of Science and Technology (formerly known as the University of Missouri-Rolla). He has been on the faculty at Missouri S&T since 1996 and has assisted in the joint engineering program between Missouri S&T and Missouri State University since 2014. Dr. Thomas managed the Materials Testing Laboratory at Missouri S&T for 18 years, where he performed mechanical characterization and design for numerous companies and research groups.
