Mechanics of Materials
Mechanics of Materials, 10th Edition by Russell Hibbeler is a widely-used textbook for undergraduate students studying engineering and related fields. The book covers the principles of mechanics and the behavior of materials under different loading conditions. It is a comprehensive guide that offers a thorough understanding of the concepts and their applications.
Russell C. Hibbeler is a Professor Emeritus of structural engineering at the University of Louisiana at Lafayette. He received his Bachelor's and Master's degrees from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign and his PhD from Northwestern University. He has authored numerous textbooks in the field of engineering mechanics, including Engineering Mechanics: Statics and Dynamics, Mechanics of Materials, and Structural Analysis. Hibbeler is known for his clear and concise writing style, and his ability to explain complex concepts in a way that is easy for students to understand.
The 10th edition of Mechanics of Materials begins with an introduction to the fundamental concepts of stress and strain, including the concept of elastic deformation and the deformation of axially loaded members. The book then covers topics such as torsion, bending, and shear stresses in beams, deflection of beams, and analysis of stress and strain in two dimensions. It also covers topics such as stress transformations, strain energy, and failure criteria for various types of materials.
The book includes a variety of examples and problems, as well as detailed explanations of the concepts and their applications. It is designed to help students develop a strong foundation in mechanics of materials, and to prepare them for advanced studies in the field. The 10th edition of Mechanics of Materials is a valuable resource for students, professors, and practicing engineers alike.
