The Author has a PhD from the University of Adelaide in Fracture Mechanics/Structures. His writings in Fracture Mechanics have become relatively popular with students/some staff, in fair number of universities in Europe and Asia.
The subject of Mechanics of Materials is being discussed here. The material has been written first and is being converted to video form. The treatment is considered both innovative and in-depth. The two main aspects related to innovation are-1) In traditional literature attention is paid to equilibrium when dealing with forces. We have also paid attention to action-reaction forces apart from equilibrium. 2) Stress is laid on the central theme of the subject and its integrated nature.
