Stress Calculation in Components

This course covers the comprehensive understanding of stress calculation in components. It begins with the basics of stress calculation in various components like slides, bars, and shafts under different types of loading. The course further delves into the quantification of internal forces and strains at a point on the body, introducing the concept of stress or traction vector. It also discusses the concept of a 3D stress tensor and its components. The course then moves on to the topic of tensors, their orders, and their applications in physics and engineering. It explains the difference between scalar, vector, and tensor quantities. The course concludes with the determination of principal planes and principal stresses, and the concept of stress invariants. For instance, it explains how to calculate the strain at a point where the displacements are given in millimeters.
