What is Mechanics of Materials
• Mechancis of Materials is a branch of
mechanics that studies the internal effects of
stress and strain in a solid body that is
subjected to an external loading
• Stress is associated with the STRENGTH of the
material from which the body is made
• Strain is a measure of the DEFORMATION of
the body

MECHANICS OF MATERIALS
• Principle of statics
• Main branch of mechanics and deals
with forces (external loads) on bodies
which are at rest (static equilibrium)
• External Loads
• Surface loads : Point Load, Uniformly
Distributed Load
• Body Forces: Self Weight
• Support Reactions
Support Reactions
Equations of Equilibrium
Equilibrium of a body requires both
1. A balance of forces – prevent body from translating
2. A balanced of moments – to prevent body from rotating

𝐹=0 𝑀0 = 0
If an X,Y, Z coordinate system is established, the
force and moments vectors can be resolved into
components along each axis

𝐹𝑥 = 0 𝐹𝑦 = 0 𝐹𝑧 = 0

𝑀𝑥 = 0 𝑀𝑦 = 0 𝑀𝑧 = 0

In engineering practices, the loading can be


represented as a system of coplanar forces, hence
forces lie in the X-Y plane

𝐹𝑥 = 0 𝐹𝑦 = 0 𝑀0 = 0

Allowable Stress

• To design a structural
member it is necessary
to RESTRICT the stress
material to a level that
will be safe
• One method of
specifying the allowable
stress is to introduce
the FACTOR OF SAFETY
(F.S.)
EXAMPLE
The rigid bar AB shown in Fig. 1–29a is supported by a steel rod AC
having a diameter of 20 mm and an aluminum block having a cross
sectional area of 1800mm2. The 18-mm-diameter pins at A and C are
subjected to single shear. If the failure stress for the steel and
aluminum is  st  fail  680 MPa and  al  fail  70 MPa
respectively, and the failure shear stress for each pin is  fail  900 MPa ,
determine the largest load P that can be applied to the bar. Apply a
factor of safety of FS=2.

STRAIN
• When the bolt is
tightened, this causes
compression to the
plates
• The plates under
compression produces
strains in the material
• These strains can be
related to the stress in
the material

STRESS STRAIN DIAGRAM
• Note the critical status for strength specification
 proportional limit
 elastic limit
 yield stress
 ultimate stress
 fracture stress

Copyright © 2011 Pearson Education South Asia Pte Ltd


STRESS-STRAIN DIAGRAM
• Elastic Behaviour
– Curve is a straight line
– Stress is proportional to strain
– The material is linear elastic
– Upper stress limit – Proportional Limit σpl
– Beyond the σpl the curve bends until reaches its elastic limit
– Upon reaching the elastic limit, when load is removed, the
specimen will return back to its original shape
• Yielding
– A slight increase in stress above the elastic limit will result in
permanent damage to the specimen
– This behaviour is call yielding
– Stresses that causes yielding is the Yield Stress σy
– Plastic deformation
– Once yield stress is reached, the specimen will continue to
elongate (strain) without any increase in load – Perfectly Plastic
• Strain Hardening
– When yielding has ended, an increase in load can be
supported by the specimen, resulting in a curve that rises
until it reaches a maximum stress called Ultimate Stress
– The rise in the curve is called strain hardening
• Necking
– Up to the ultimate stress, the specimen elongates
– Its cross sectional area decreases uniformly until the
decrease in area becomes localized – Necking
– From this point the stress–strain diagram curve
downwards until the specimen breaks – Fracture Stress
Ductile Material
Any material that can be subjected to large strains before it
fractures

• Mild Steel – large


deformation before failing
• Does not have a well defined
yield strength
• Offset method = 0.2% strain
(0.002 mm/mm)
To specify the ductility of a material
• Percent Elongation
– Lf = length at fracture, Lo = original length

• Percent Reduction of Area


– Af = Area of neck at fracture, Ao = original cross sectional
area

material is stressed to 600 MPa, determine the permanent strain
that remains in the specimen when the load is released. Also, find
the modulus of resilience both before and after the load
application.
