"Strength of Materials" ed. by Hector Jaramillo S., Julian Arnaldo Avila, Can Chen

In materials, their strength is the ability to bear an applied load before their failure. In this direction, the book studies the stresses and deformations that happen in materials as an outcome of loads acting on them.

The book contains eleven peer-reviewed chapters organized into two sections. Section 1 is focused on the strength of metals and composites materials, in other words on traditional materials used in engineering projects. Section 2 contains chapters on sustainable materials or non-conventional materials.
