FE Other Disciplines Strength of Materials drill
10 questions · Untimed · Worked solution after each question
Knowledge area 10 of the FE Other Disciplines specification (9–14 of 110 questions): Stress types (e.g., normal, shear); Combined loading–principle of superposition; Stress and strain caused by axial loads, bending loads, torsion, or transverse shear forces; Shear and moment diagrams; Analysis of beams, trusses, frames, and columns; Loads and deformations (e.g., axial-extension, torque-angle of twist, moment-rotation); Stress transformation and principal stresses, including stress-based yielding and fracture criteria (e.g., Mohr’s circle, maximum normal stress, Tresca, von Mises); Material failure (e.g., Euler buckling, creep, fatigue, brittle fracture, stress concentration factors, factor of safety, and allowable stress).
Before you start
