The course structure

A comprehensive curriculum designed for you. Easy to follow along modules divided into byte sized lessons. 

Chapter 1: Concept of Hooks law

Refresh your understanding of Hook’s law. You will learn the basic definition of stress and strain and how those are related with one of the core law’s of mechanics: The Hook’s law. You will also gain an understanding on the limits of Hook’s law.

Chapter 2: Mathematical preliminaries

You will gain the background mathematical preliminaries necessary to understand and develop equations for Mohr’s circle. Do not fear, we have tried to keep it succinct and make the explanation as easy as possible.

Chapter 3: Stress state in 2D

You will learn about the concept of Cauchy stress tensor and how this is used in representing stress at a point. Then, you will the representation to denote the Hooks law for a two dimensional structure.

Chapter 4: Mohr’s Circle

Now comes the step, where you can make a Mohr’s circle and how you can use it to calculate the stress values at any plane with the help of simple example of simply supported beam.

Chapter 5:  Outro

The actual learning will always end with the real world implementation. Here, you will get to know what solution was the scientist trying to find with this method. And why Mohr’s circle will be the base for your professional engineering application.
