Learning Objectives

  • formulate the general boundary value problem of linear elasticity in three dimensions
  • solve uniform states of strain and stress in three dimensions
  • specialize the general problem to planar states of strain and stress
  • understand the stress function formulation as a means to reduce the general problem to a single differential equation.
  • solve aerospace-relevant problems in plane strain and plane stress in cartesian and cylindrical coordinates
