Detailed
description of topics:
wb1110 d1 - Statics
Components and resultants of forces in R2 and R3. Equilibrium in R2 and R3. Statically
determinate vs statically indeterminate structures. Plane trusses and frames. Centroids
and moments of inertia of plane areas. Normal force, shear force and bending moments in
beams.
wb1110 d2 - Strength of materials
Statically determinate or indeterminate structures under external loads, temperature
changes and pre-stress; strain energy. Torsion of statically determinate structures;
transmission of power by shafts; strain energy. Bending, shearing and normal stresses in
beams; composite structures. Deflections of statically determinate or indeterminate
structures. The elastica or deflection curve; superposition using tables of beam
deflections ("vergeet-mij-nietjes").
