Mechanics and Strength of Materials which was writeen by Vitor Dias da Silva was published by Springer. Vitor Dias da Silva, Faculty of Science & Technology from University of Coimbra. The motivation for writing this book came from an awareness of the lack of a treatise, written in European Portuguese, which contains the theoretical material taught in the disciplines of the Mechanics of Solid Materials and the Strength of Materials, and explained with a degree of depth appropriate to Engineering courses in Portuguese universities, with special reference to the University of Coimbra. In fact, this book is the result of the theoretical texts and exercises prepared and improved on by the author between 1989-94, for the disciplines of Applied Mechanics II (Introduction to the Mechanics of Materials) and Strength of Materials, taught by the author in the Civil Engineering course and also in the Geological Engineering, Materials Engineering and Architecture courses.

This treatise contains topics on Solid Mechanics, the Theory of Slender Members and an Introduction to the Theory of Structures, usually taught in the disciplines of Strength of Materials of most Engineering courses, such as Civil, Mechanical and Aeronautical Engineering.

In relation to the most widely known treatises on Mechanics and Strength of Materials, a greater scientific exactness and an extra emphasis on the theoretical justification of the topics explained may be stressed.  Axioms and non-demonstrated simplifying hypotheses, which are common in this kind of book, are avoided. The depth of the explanation is at an intermediate level between those works and treatises based on a mathematical approach to the Theory of Elasticity and Continuum Mechanics. However, the topics are always introduced from a physical point of view, which is fundamental for an Engineer, and are anchored on over 300 figures of high graphical quality.
