MDSolids

MDSolids is software for topics taught in the Mechanics of Materials course (also
commonly called Strength of Materials or Mechanics of Deformable Solids). This
course is typically a part of civil, mechanical, and aerospace engineering programs
and a number of related programs. The software also features a number of modules
for topics taught in the Statics course.
MDSolids consists of routines for beams and flexural members, torsional assemblies,
axial assemblies, trusses, columns, pressure vessels, section properties, Mohr's
circle analysis (including stress transformations and strain transformations), and
many more topics.

For over a decade, MDSolids has been meeting the needs of students and engineering
professionals. These users will tell you that no engineering software is easier to
use or more versatile. Please have a look at the features of MDSolids to discover
what this software can do for you.

Style

-Throughout MDSolids, the user is offered graphical or intuitive choices for all of
the required data or units. In drawing shear force and bending moment diagrams, for
example, the user can click on a picture of an arrow pointed down and enter the
magnitude of the load to define a downward vertical point load rather than having
to remember to enter a negative number for the load.

-In most cases, four common units (two US and two SI) are provided for each
variable. For example, stress can be computed in psi, ksi, kPa, or MPa. The user is
free to mix the units in any way desired. For example, a beam cross-section could
be defined in millimeters, a beam length in inches, a moment diagram in kN-m, and
the resulting bending stress could be shown in psi.

-All of these choices for forces and units are made by simply clicking the
appropriate buttons on the displayed forms. The mechanics of materials concepts are
difficult enough without adding confusion about software sign conventions and unit
systems.
