The principle of minimum potential energy

This is the most important theorem in solid mechanics. To determine the deformation and the stress in the structure we can use the principle of minimum potential energy. A proper

Solid Mechanics: Introduction

Mechanics is the science of forces and motions. The origins of mechanics could be traced back to 4th century BC when Aristotle founds the system of Aristotelian physics, but it
