Lecture

Theory of Elasticity

Description

This lecture covers the theory of elasticity, focusing on simple laws of linear elasticity, Hooke's law, assumptions for scalar relations, hydrostatic compression, pure shear-stress, strain tensors, stress tensor, and a review of thermodynamics. It also discusses the physical significance of the strain tensor, work of internal forces, thermodynamics of deformation, and generalized Hooke's law. The content includes the effect of temperature, anisotropy coefficient, and the application of Hooke's law to cubic crystals.
