At the end of this course, the student will: 

• Have an understanding of the fundamental concepts and elementary elasticity
• Establish failure theories
• Interpret the nonsymmetrical bending of beams and the torsion of noncircular long prisms
• Elaborate advanced topics in the analysis of beams, Multi-material, thin-walled, and curved beams.
• Identify energy methods, limit analysis, beam-columns, thermal, and residual stresses.
