This entry is meant to summarize my personal information, and the reasons why I am taking this class. Here are my responses to the bulleted topics:
- I have taken three courses relating to solid mechanics prior to ES 240. These were undergraduate classes taken at the Univ. of Delaware and they include: (1) Mechanics of Solids, (2) Material Science and Engineering, (3) Design of Machinery
- My undergraduate major was Mechanical Engineering
Part 4 of Elements of Elasticity. Please see attached.
My name's Alison Forsyth, I'm a G2 biomedical engineer at Harvard. I did my undergrad at Syracuse University where I majored in bioengineering. Prior courses in solid mechanics are: mechanics of materials, materials processing and properties, and advanced biomechanics.
My name is John Peter Whitney, but I go by Peter. My parents set it up that way--I don't know why. This is my answer to Pset 2, problem 6:
* I last took solid mechanics Fall 2001. This sophomore-level course was taught by Professor Mark Spearing. We used Crandall, Dahl, and Lardner. I have forgotten almost everything from that class.
* My undergrad degree is in Physics, and my masters is in aerospace engineering (which I also studied but did not get a degree in as an undergrad).
hello,
I need some examples in *.pdf to learn fracture mechanics in abaqus. the best for me will be some example for 2d and 3d stationary crack and 2d and 3d for crack propagation
Overview
This is a blog entry about my background as it pertains to solid mechanics, written in effort to achieve maximum credit for Problem 6 on the ES 240 assignment due Friday, October 5, 2007.
Prior Courses in Solid Mechanics
My prior experience in solid mechanics is limited to half a semester of graduate "Mechanics of Materials" which I took as a listener at MIT in Spring 2005. As such, much of the material covered in this subject is new to me.
