AM 7040: Theory of Shells
3.00 Credits
University of Virginia-Main Campus
Introduces the nonlinear, thermoelastic theory of shells. Governing equations are derived by a mixed approach in which those equations of three-dimensional continuum mechanics that are independent of material properties are used to derive the corresponding shell equations, whereas the constitutive equations of shell theory which, unavoidably, depend on experiments, are postulated. Emphasizes efficient, alternative formulations of initial/boundary value problems, suitable for asymptotic or numerical solution, and discusses variational principles. Some comparisons made with exact, three-dimensional solutions.

AM 7080: Inelastic Solid Mechanics
3.00 Credits
University of Virginia-Main Campus
Emphasizes the formulation of a variety of nonlinear models. Specific topics include nonlinear elasticity, creep, visco-elasticity, and elasto-plasticity. Solutions to boundary value problems of practical interest are presented in the context of these various theories in order to illustrate the differences in stress distributions caused by different types of material nonlinearities. Cross-listed as APMA 708.

AM 7120: Advanced Theory of Elasticity
3.00 Credits
University of Virginia-Main Campus
Topics include generalized Hooke’s law, strain-energy density, uniqueness; classes of boundary value problems (Navier’s and Beltrami-Mitchell equations); torsion (Dirlichlet and Neumann problems); flexure; complex variable formulation of torsional (Dirlichlet and Neumann problems) and two-dimensional problems; general solution methodologies based on complex variable techniques and elements of potential theory for torsional and two-dimensional problems; three-dimensional problems; wave propagation; and energy methods.

AM 7140: Nonlinear Elasticity Theory
3.00 Credits
University of Virginia-Main Campus
Describes the theory of finite (nonlinear) elasticity governing large deformations of highly deformable elastic solids. New features not present in the linear theory are emphasized. These include instabilities (both material and geometric), normal stress effects, non-uniqueness, bifurcations and stress singularities. A variety of illustrative boundary value problems will be discussed which exhibit some of the foregoing features. Both physical and mathematical implications considered. The results are applicable to rubber-like and biological materials and the theory serves as a prototype for more elaborate nonlinear theories of mechanics of continuous media. Cross-listed as APMA 714.
