Supposing you work within the elasticity theory one good place for Mathematica notebooks is the folowing link http://www-personal.umich.edu/~jbarber/elasticity/book.html It contains Mathematica notebooks (as well relevant material for anothe CAS) for the material inside Barber's Book Elasticity (Second Edition). Also of great interest are the following links: http://documents.wolfram.com/applications/structural/ http://zen.uta.edu/research/cas.html Hope that I help you a little!
