Strength of Materials (Mechanics of Materials) studies how solid bodies deform and fail when subjected to forces.
-
Strength → Resistance against failure.
-
Stiffness → Resistance against deformation.
-
Stability → Ability to regain equilibrium after disturbance.
Application: Used in designing beams, bridges, shafts, columns, pressure vessels, etc.
