SM Syllabus

This document outlines the topics covered in the ME2254-Strength of Materials course. It discusses stress, strain, and deformation of solids under different types of loads like tension, compression, and shear. It also examines stresses and deformations in beams under different supports and loads, as well as torsion and shear stresses in circular and stepped shafts. Additionally, it covers beam deflection analysis using various methods and stresses in columns. Finally, it discusses biaxial stresses, principal stresses, and Mohr's circle for analyzing stresses in two dimensions. The document lists two textbooks and six reference books for the course material.
