Simulation Based Engineering in Solid Mechanics

The book explores the evolution of rotating machinery and the Strength of Materials within 20th-century Solid Mechanics, highlighting the shift towards High Performance Computing (HPC) and Simulation Based Engineering Science (SBES) in design. It provides a recap of essential mathematical principles and delves into the science of deformation, strain, and stress under external loads, focusing on one-dimensional structures like Bars, Rods, and Beams. It also discusses principal stresses, von Mises stress, and employs Lagrangian solutions to derive governing differential equations for analyzing deformations and stresses.
