This unit deals with the study of the mechanics of rigid solids. It is the natural continuation of the unit devoted to the kinematics and statics of rigid solids in L1. In this unit, we'll take a dynamic approach and apply the Fundamental Principle of Dynamics. Writing this principle requires knowledge of the external action torsor, studied in L1, as well as knowledge of the dynamic torsor. The latter can be calculated using the kinetic torsor, which for a rigid solid involves the notion of moment of inertia. The main applications studied in this unit concern rigid solids or simple cases of articulated systems of rigid solids. In addition, we will study the special case of contact and friction actions (Coulomb friction) and the Kinetic Energy Theorem.

Strength of materials

ECTS

Faculty of Science
Resistance of materials (RoM) is a special discipline of continuum mechanics, used to calculate stresses and strains in slender structures made of different materials (machinery, mechanical engineering, building and civil engineering). It involves 1D static modeling of a deformable solid, assimilated to a beam linked to a frame and subjected to external mechanical loads.
RoM allows us to reduce the study of a structure's overall behavior (the relationship between stresses - forces or moments - and displacements) to that of the local behavior of the materials making it up(the relationship between stresses and strains). Mechanical stresses can be seen as " cohesive forces " in matter. The deformations of a physical object can be observed by a variation in its dimensions or overall shape.

Rheology is the study of material deformation and flow under applied mechanical stress. In the field of materials, this science particularly concerns the following areas:
- Viscoelasticity
- Plasticity
- Viscoplasticity
- Non-Newtonian fluids
In practice, rheology is used to characterize the macroscopic mechanical properties of materials whose behavior escapes the classical theories of elastic solids and Newtonian fluids (with constant viscosity). Such materials can thus be considered as having an intermediate behavior between solid and fluid, between elastic and viscous.

In the following section on fluid dynamics, we establish Euler's equation and Bernoulli's relation for the flow of perfect fluids, followed by the Navier-Stokes equation describing the flow of viscous Newtonian fluids. This will lead to the definition of the stress tensor and the Reynolds number, enabling us to deduce whether a flow is laminar or turbulent. The course concludes with an introduction to the mechanics of deformable solids : displacement field, expansion and deformation tensors.

After a presentation of one-dimensional dimensioning and its limitations, "3D" geometric tolerancing (GPS), in accordance with ISO standards, is introduced in order to learn how to read and then write a geometric tolerance according to the functional requirements of a part in a mechanical system. The study of the hyperstaticity of the mechanism and links then enables the functional conditions required to ensure the assembly and correct operation of the system to be established. Dimensional and geometric tolerances are then determined by setting up and resolving dimensional chains. Finally, once the parts have been manufactured, it is necessary to carry out metrological checks and verify their conformity with the functional dimensioning.
