Postgraduate Certificate in Mechanics of Deformable Solids
Deformable solid mechanics is a branch of mechanics that focuses on the study of solids that undergo deformation when subjected to external loads. Academic programs on this subject are usually included in mechanical, civil, aerospace engineering careers, among others. At TECHTechnological University we have this specialized program designed to provide specialized knowledge and skills in necessary to analyze and design structures and components that are able to withstand external loads efficiently and safely....
To understand and predict how a solid will deform when an external force is applied to it, various mathematical equations describing the behavior of solid materials are used in deformable solid mechanics. In particular, equations are used that relate the stress (force exerted on the material) and deformation (change in the size or shape of the material) of the solid, and allow prediction of its behavior under different types of external forces. The mechanics of the deformable solid has important applications in engineering, architecture, biology and materials science, among other disciplines. This branch of physics is essential for the design and construction of structures and machinery, as well as for the study of materials and their properties.
