Mechanics of Materials presents the theory and practice of mechanics of materials in a straight-forward, student-friendly manner that addresses the learning styles of today's students without sacrificing rigor or depth in the presentation of topics. From basic concepts of stress and strain to more advanced topics like beam deflections and combined loads, this book provides students with everything they need to embark on successful careers in materials and mechanical engineering. Laying an emphasis on critical thinking forms, this text focuses on helping learners develop practical skills, encouraging them to recognize fundamental concepts relevant to specific situations, identify equations needed to solve problems, and engage with literature in the field.
This International Adaptation has been thoroughly updated to use SI units. This edition strengthens the coverage by including methods such as moment area method and conjugate beam method for calculating deflection of beams, and a method for calculating shear stresses in beams of triangular cross section. Additionally, it includes Learning Assessments in a range of difficulty suitable for learners at various stages of development which elucidate and reinforce the course concepts.

About the Author
TIMOTHY A. PHILPOT was an Associate Professor in the Department of Civil, Architectural, and Environmental Engineering at the Missouri University of Science and Technology (formerly known as the University of Missouri–Rolla). He received his B.S. degree from the University of Kentucky in 1979, his M.Engr. degree from Cornell University in 1980, and his Ph.D. degree from Purdue University in 1992. In the 1980s, he worked as a structural engineer in the offshore construction industry in New Orleans, London, Houston, and Singapore. He joined the faculty at Murray State University in 1986 and Missouri S&T in 1999. He passed away unexpectedly in 2017. Dr. Philpot's primary areas of teaching and research were in engineering mechanics and the development of interactive, multimedia educational software for the introductory engineering mechanics courses.
JEFFERY S. THOMAS is an Associate Teaching Professor in the Department of Civil, Architectural, and Environmental Engineering at Missouri University of Science and Technology (formerly known as the University of Missouri-Rolla). He received his B.S. (1995) and M.S. (1996) degrees in mechanical engineering and his Ph.D. (2009) in engineering mechanics from Missouri S&T. He has been on the faculty at Missouri S&T since 1996 and has assisted in the joint engineering program between Missouri S&T and Missouri State University since 2014. His educational research has focused on computer-based assessments, online content delivery, and measurement of student engagement. He is a licensed professional engineer and a member of the American Society for Engineering Education.
