Abstract
This chapter covers the analytical description of rod or bar members. Based on the three basic equations of continuum mechanics, i.e. the kinematics relationship, the constitutive law and the equilibrium equation, the partial differential equation which describes the problem is derived. Analytical solutions in the pure elastic and elasto-plastic range for different loading and boundary conditions are derived and discussed.
