This significantly revised and updated second edition is a comprehensive and well-structured text on engineering mechanics of solids. The author with his masterly skills has strived to supplement the traditional topics with new and emerging disciplines. The new edition provides an analytical expression for cyclic loading, introduces a novel failure surface for brittle material, and has substantially expanded the discussion on the mechanical properties of materials. The text gives not only extensive treatment of the true stress-strain diagrams but also new sections on fatigue and viscoelastic behaviour. The book also includes the fundamentals of the probabilistic basis for structural design. The text is so designed that students pursuing courses in civil, mechanical and aeronautical engineering will find it to be a suitable textbook.
