  1. Solid mechanics

    Continuum mechanics cTopic Solid mechanics Solid mechanics is the branch of mechanics , physics , and mathematics that concerns the behavior of solid matter under external actions e.g., external force s, temperature changes, applied displacements, etc. . It is part of a broader study known as continuum mechanics . One of the most common practical applications of solid mechanics is the Euler Bernoulli beam equation . Solid mechanics extensively uses tensor s to describe stresses, strains, and the relationship between them. Relationship to continuum mechanics As shown in the following table, solid mechanics inhabits a central place within continuum mechanics. The field of rheology presents an overlap between solid and fluid mechanics fluid mechanics. Continuum mechanics context Response models A material has a rest shape and its shape departs away from the rest shape due to stress. The amount of departure from rest shape is called Deformation mechanics deformation , the proportion of deformation to original size is called strain. If the applied stress is sufficiently low or the imposed strain is small enough , almost all solid materials behave in such a way that the strain is directly ...

It is named after Dimitri Pavlovitch Riabouchinsky . Riabouchinsky solids are typically used for analysing the behaviour of bodies moving through otherwise quiescent fluid examples would include moving cars, or buildings in a windfield . Typically the Streamlines, streaklines, and pathlines streamline that touches the edge of the body is modelled as having no adverse pressure gradient transverse pressure gradient and thus may be styled as a free surface after separation.

  1. Impact (mechanics)

    Mechanical failure modes In mechanics , an impact is a high force or Shock mechanics shock applied over a short time period when two or more bodies collide. Such a force or acceleration usually has a greater effect than a lower force applied over a proportionally longer time period of time. The effect depends critically on the relative velocity of the bodies to one another. At normal speeds, during a perfectly inelastic collision , an object struck by a projectile will deform, and this deformation will absorb most, or even all, of the force of the collision. Viewed from the conservation of energy perspective, the kinetic energy of the projectile is changed into heat and sound energy, as a result of the deformations and vibrations induced in the struck object. However, these deformations and vibrations cannot occur instantaneously. A high velocity collision an impact does not provide sufficient time for these deformations and vibrations to occur. Thus, the struck material behaves as if it were more brittle than it is, and the majority of the applied force goes into fracturing the material. Or, another way to look at it is that materials actually are more brittle on short time scales than on long time scales this is related to time temperature superposition . Impact resistance will be decreased with an increase in the modulus of elasticity, which means that stiffer materials will have less impact resistance. Resilient materials will have better impact resistance. Different materials can behave in quite different ways in impact when compared with static loading conditions. Ductile materials like steel tend to become more brittle at high loading rates, and spalling may occur on the reverse ... contact stress at the point of impact to a solid body, with compression physical compression ...
