  • Thank you, India... From Norway. This is a top-class professor

  • I am very happy to see the vidoe after you give this Mechanics of Solids IITM 2.7 Trusses - Method of Sections

  • Thank you India!!!Really love his lectures.

    from Canada...

  • @66611141 same here :)!

  • You saved my life. Thankyou.

    (major engineering assignment for my HSC due monday and i had a bit of trouble..)

    Thanks a million!

  • But i really love his way of teaching. He has been saving my many times. An d I stull wach his videos. RESPECT for Prof. M.Siva.Kumar. Greetings from Denmark

  • 10:02 he says GH is P-2Ey

    But the correct answer is GH = 1/2P -2Ey

  • This guy saved my ass tiday

  • :)

    

  • why do i bother going to lectures? this is less rushed and straight to the point

  • .... the answer is "WHY NOT???"

  • But Amazing! lecture..You Just Saved My ASS!!

  • The chalk noise gives me chilly nipples. .

  • back in my senior year this professor managed to turn 2 pages of tedious working out into 2 lines thanks to this video, i now come back here every time i forget how to do this section of mechanics XD i dont need to do it alot but hell sometimes i just come here and click @12:11 just to lol XD

  • You are an absolute LIFESAVER! Better than my lecturer and my statics book combined! Just in time for my exam tomorrow as well...

  • This dude is infinitely better than my lecturer

  • this was very very very helpful thankyou

  • the awkward moment when you get to the point of mechanics and ask yourself 'why'

  • This is much easier too understand than my textbook. Who needs school when you have the internet? Thanks a bunch, very helpful.

  • All these ITT lectures are so awesome and varied, but the blackboard and the chalk is making my ears bleed. I wish they would use whiteboard with markers.

  • Thanks, your videos are great

  • at 12:11 he does what we all want to do to statics problems sometimes...

  • @george21wu  HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA­HAHHAHAHAHHAHAHA

  • I love you

  • thank you so much. You're much more helpful than my lecturer. You teach really good and not rushing things up. thank you.

  • thank you very much for this...u hav saved my degree!!

  • thank you for helping me cram!!!

  • THANK U!

    simple and clear, just the way I like it!

    This will help me on my exam

  • Omg I love this guys. He just saved me so much time and a sourse to an actual lecturer but online. Thank you so very very much.

  • Siva is not only a great friend of mine, a greatly simpleton who influenced me a lot. Lot of these lectures bring fond memories of structural design, mechanics, foundations, soil mechanics, during my college years. Wow!!!! I can listen to these forever...fantastic work

  • This is a great refresher for Mechanics of Materials. Thanks for the great work!

  • this is a great video

    but what if we wanted to find the forces in members CG and CD also? how would we go about this

  • Then make another section, one that ideally passes through the members you are interested in. The whole premise of this method is based around the assumption that if a body is in equilibrium, then its members are as well. Use that to your advantage.

  • @pissbucket2 you set up equilibrium equations for forces and momemnts.

  • amazing ..... thanks a lot prof!!!!!

  • Did he get the reaction of A correct?Shouldnt there be a horizontal component at A?

  • Dear geethike:

    Ideally I should have added a horizontal component at A and found out that component to be zero at A. I jumped that step here since this video was shot after many lessons of drawing freebody diagrams.

    Sivakumar

  • Thank you sir for the clarification. Your videos immensely helped me for the statics exam I had yesterday.

    Geethike

  • i think he did since there is no external horizontal force to balance any reactions.

  • he assumed the support to be able to move at point A.

    yup his first diagram was different

  • very clearly explained

  • thanks..

  • bloody good job matey. keep it up

  • Great job! Thank you very very much for taking the time to make all of these videos!!!!

  • so method of joints uses Fx=0 and Fy=0 while method of sections uses M=0... clear enough... and it saved me a lot of reading... thanks prof...

  • very awesome !!!!!

  • very good, thanks!

  • Awesome. I love him!
