Theory of Elasticity and Plasticity

This document outlines a course on the theory of elasticity and plasticity. The course objectives are to impart knowledge of principal stresses and strains, develop analytical skills for solving problems using plane stress and plane strain, and impart knowledge of plasticity applications in engineering. The course outcomes are for students to demonstrate applications of plane stress and plane strain, analyze structures using plasticity, and impart knowledge of stress-strain relations, torsion, and elastic-plastic problems. The course is divided into 5 units covering topics like elasticity, principal stresses and strains, plane stress and plane strain, stress-strain relations, torsion, and plasticity.
