Fondamenti di scienza delle costruzioni

2010-11 Academic year

Lecturer: Carlo Cinquini  

Course name: Fondamenti di scienza delle costruzioni
Course code: 502471
Degree course: Ingegneria per l'Ambiente e il Territorio
Disciplinary field of science: ICAR/08
University credits: CFU 6
Course website: n.d.

Specific course objectives

The general aim of the course is to provide students basic knowledge in continuum mechanics and structural theory. Fundamental laws are focused: equilibrium, compatibility, principal of virtual work, constitutive equations. Beam theory is developed and methods of solution are dealt with, looking at following more applied courses.

Course programme

Solid Mechanics
Stress state. Cauchy tensor. Strain state. Principle of virtual work. Elastic state. Elastic constants. General formulation of the elastic problem. Resistance criteria.

Saint-Venant problem
Normal action. Torsion. Pure bending. Shear and bending

Applications and extensions
Beam theory. Principle of virtual work. Beam problem solutions. Buckling problems.
