Mechanics of Materials

Ugural provides a comprehensive and methodical presentation of the basic concepts in the analysis of members subjected to axial loads, torsion, bending, and pressure. The material presented strikes a balance between the theory necessary to gain insight into mechanics and numerical solutions, both of which are useful in performing stress analysis in a realistic setting. Readers will also benefit from the visual interpretation of the basic equations and of the means by which the loads are resisted in typical members.Ansel C. Ugural is the author of 'Mechanics of Materials', published 1991 under ISBN 9780070657373 and ISBN 0070657378.
