Advanced Mechanics of Materials
• The students are already familiar with the topic, Small Strains. Here,
we review the concepts.
• The other subjects are new.
• The following subjects need more attention on the students’ side:
Finite Strains
Continuum Thermodynamics
Plasticity of Metals
• We try to devote more time on these subjects and discuss the
concepts more slowly.
