Plates III: Buckling Theory and Applications

Explores the moment-curvature relation for beams, emphasizing stress distribution and typical boundary conditions.

Covers 3D linear elasticity, stress, strain, beams' behavior under loads, and torsion.

Covers the fundamentals of structural mechanics, focusing on beams, sign conventions, types of beams, and methods to calculate stress resultants.

Explores Gaussian curvature, principal curvatures, and nonlinear strain in thin elastic plates.

Covers strain-displacement relations, simplifications, constitutive relations, equilibrium equations, and circular rings.
