ES 240 PS2 #6

- I took one undergraduate classical Solid Mechanics course.

- Mechanical Engineering undergraduate degree (Bucknell University).

-Strengths - most of the concepts aren't new since they were introduced in undergrad solids. I've never used index notation before and it's been a long time since I took multivariable calc and diff eq. so my math is a little iffy.

-Microrobotics Lab (Woodgroup)

-Autonomous biomimetic microrobotics

-Solid mechanics is important on the materials side of robotics, designing structures to be strong enough to avoid failure; some microrobots also take advantage of elasticity to make compliant mechanisms.

-Solid mechanics is generally an important foundation in mechanical engineering for failure analysis and proper selection of materials for any given design.
