This review covers essential topics for the mid-term exam, including vector and index notation, matrix-tensor theory, and coordinate transformations. Key areas include principal value problems, vector calculus, and the applications of strain-displacement and rotation-displacement relations. The review also encompasses strain compatibility equations, traction vector, stress tensor definitions, equilibrium equations, and forms of Hooke’s law. Additionally, it addresses boundary-value problem formulations, displacement and stress formulation techniques involving Navier’s equations, Beltrami-Michell compatibility, and foundational aspects of strain energy.
