You may know that I am always on the watch for quality books on Mechanical Engineering, recognizing that a Mechanical Engineering is
required for the information.
I bumped on a truly informative post that walks through Mechanical Engineering from a new perspective. Make sure you go over this article and inform me what you think. Today’s article is titled title and you can read the entire article published below for convenience:
A plate that is 5cm wide and 1 cm thick has a hole that is .25cm in diameter, is subjected to a tensile force of 60N. What is tensile failure strength must material possess to avoid failure? (Plate is made of a brittle material, so Maximum Shear Stress Theory is used, I believe)

I am designing a stirling engine using stainless steel foil for a cylinder head material. The stainless steel foil is .002″ thick, and is type 304 with a max temp rating of 1800*F. The bore of the cylinder is 85.5mm. The foil will be secured to the cylinder with a flange which exposes as much as the surface area as the bore.
My question is……how do I know what the material strength is at an elevated temperature? I need to find out what my pressurisation limit is with the material so I don’t shoot my eye out. I plan to operate it to about 1200*F max. (allowing for hot spots)
I would really appreciate it if someone helped me through this question..
A weight W is suspended from a steel cable with a cross sectional area of 36 mm2, a length of 81m and a Young’s modulus of 200,000 N/mm2.
If the elongation of the cable due to the weight is 13 mm, determine the value of W in Newtons.
Thank you
The suggested materials should be able to bend when a small sufficient force is applied to them thus it should not just bend when when gravity is acting on it.
I trying to think of a better object to replace a rubber band in a propeller for a toy car but I want it to be stronger. The object / material doesn’t necessarily have to accessible to me , it just has to exist.
Don’t think there’s much more to add, save that I’m doing some research for a story and looking for a material that can 
have a sizable pocket of vacuum in the middle without imploding. Manufacturing difficulties are irrelevant.

how difficult is strength of materials course at any university or at U of H Mect 3355?
If I have two separate materials that each have a tensile strength of 200lbs that I attach together, does the total tensile strength of two attached pieces increase to 400lbs? Or does it still remain 200lbs as that is the rating per item?
Thanks!
