The course is mainly dedicated to the DAPE Students. 

From the theoretical point of view the course consists of the following problems to be discussed during the lectures and exercises:

-fundamentals of strength of materials

-basic structures and environment

-loads on structures

-strength of materials: tension, stress, analysis of stress and strain, bending moments and shearing forces, longitudinal and shearing stress in beams, bending stress and direct stress combined, deflections of beams, etc.

-special issues of strength of materials: plastic bending of mild-steel beams, torsion of cilcular shafts and thin-walled tubes, buckling of columns and beams, lateral deflections of circular plates, torsion of non-circular sections, structural vibarations, etc.

-advanced modelling of strength o materials towards applications,

-energy and advanced methods.
