plain stress and plain strain problem, combined loading: axial and torsional; axial and
bending; axial, torsional and bending. Pressure vessel, Hoop stress, Bending of beams load,
shear and moment in beams, properties of cross sectional area, stresses in beams, equation
of elastic curve, deflection. Energy Methods-minimum potential and complementary
energy, Betti-Maxwell Reciprocal theorem
 Post Mid-term:

conditions.. Torsion of cylindrical bars, torsional stress, modulus of rigidity and
deformation. Shear in beam (vertical, longitudinal shear, shear center in thin-walled beam).

Different types of structural elements
 Rods/Bars

 The Rods/Bars are any member which are subjected to axial (Tensile/Compressive but
no Transverse/Torsional loads) Loads only.
 Rods are definitely circular cross section whereas Bars are of can be non-circular cross
section.
