Mechanics and Materials Lecture Notes

This note provides an introduction to the mechanics of solids with applications to science and engineering. Itemphasize the three essential features of all mechanics analyses, namely: (a) the geometry of the motion and/or deformation of the structure, and conditions of geometric fit, (b) the forces on and within structures and assemblages; and (c) the physical aspects of the structural system which quantify relations between the forces and motions/deformation.
