A sample from this course

One topic, as StudyPath teaches it.

Simple stress and strain

Simple stress and strain deals with how a material responds when an axial force pulls, pushes, or shears it. For exams, you must master the meanings of normal stress, shear stress, strain, elastic behaviour, and Hooke’s law, because these ideas are the foundation for calculating deformation and judging whether a member can safely carry load.
