Mechanical properties of solid

Description

• Mechanical Properties of Solids is a branch of physics that deals with the behaviour of solid materials under the action of external forces. It explains how materials change their shape, size and volume when forces are applied. Important concepts include stress, strain, elasticity, plasticity, Hooke’s Law, Young’s modulus, bulk modulus and shear modulus. These properties help us understand the strength, flexibility and durability of different materials. They are widely used in engineering, construction, architecture and the design of machines and structures.
