Description

This lecture covers the main learning objectives of understanding the power of dimensional analysis and scalings to gain physical insight into difficult-to-tackle structures, recognizing and analyzing slender structural systems composed of beams, rods, plates, and shells towards predicting their mechanical performance. It also delves into topics like simplifying assumptions, state of stress, kinematics, elasticity, balance equations, and constitutive laws in the context of slender structures.
