Stability of Structures Detailed Syllabus for Structural Engineering M.Tech first year second sem is covered here. This gives the details about credits, number of hours and other details along with reference books for the course.
The detailed syllabus for Stability of Structures M.Tech 2017-2018 (R17) first year second sem is as follows.
M.Tech. I Year II Sem.
Course Objectives: To impart knowledge on the elastic, inelastic buckling and torsional buckling of structures.
Course Outcomes: The learner will be able to understand buckling of bars and frames.
UNIT – I : Beam Columns: Differential equations for beam columns- beam columns with concentrated loads – continuous lateral loads-couples- beam columns with built in ends – continuous beams with axial load – application of trigonometrically series – Effects of initial curvature on deflections – Determination of allowable stresses.
UNIT – II : Elastic Buckling of bars and frames: Elastic Buckling of straight columns – Effect of shear stress on buckling – Eccentrically and laterally loaded columns- Buckling of frames-large deflections of buckled bars-Energy methods- Buckling of bars on elastic foundations- Buckle line of bar with intermediate compressive forces – Buckling of bars with change in cross-section – Effect of shear force on critical load- built up columns.
UNIT – III : In Elastic Buckling: Buckle line of straight bar- Double modulus theory – Tangent modulus theory, Inelastic lateral Buckling. Experiments and design formulae: Experiments on columns – Critical stress diagram – Empirical formulae for design –various end conditions
UNIT – IV : Torsion Buckling: Pure torsion of thin walled bars of open cross section – Non-uniform torsion of thin walled bars of open cross section- Torsional buckling – Buckling by torsion and flexure.
UNIT – V : Lateral buckling of simply supported Beams: Beams of Rectangular cross-section subjected to pure bending. Buckling of simply supported Rectangular plates: Derivation of equation of plate subjected to constant compression in one and two directions.
