CE 206 - Elasticity (GE, BB)

Institution:

Duke University

Subject:

Civil Engineering

Description:

Linear elasticity will be emphasized including concepts of stress and strain as second order tensors, equilibrium at the boundary and within the body, and compatibility of strains. Generalized solutions to two and three dimensional problems will be derived and applied to classical problems including torsion of noncircular sections, bending of curved beams, stress concentrations and contact problems. Applications of elasticity solutions to contemporary problem in civil and biomedical engineering will be discussed. Prerequisites: Biomedical Engineering 110L or Engineering 75L; Mathematics 108.
