A Text Book Of Strength Of Materials

A Text Book Of Strength Of Materials by I. B Prasad

---

Book Summary:

During the past many years, the subject “Strength of Materials” has developed tremendously and is being offered to engineering students at various levels of their undergraduate studies, in almost all the universities of the world. A number of books have been written by various authors on this subject, but none of these books thoroughly and completely deals with the full treatment of this subject. Further, various authors have used varied nomenclature, which sometimes create confusion in the mind of the reader. In this book the author has followed internationally recognised symbols throughout the book.

Audience of the Book :

This book Useful for Mechanical Engineering Students.
