Structural Mechanics - A unified approach (Hardcover)

This text presents a complete treatment of the fundamental themes of structural mechanics, from the traditonal to the most advanced. It covers: the mechanics of linear elastic solids, theory of beam systems and phenomena of structural failure. Structural symmetry is considered in one chapter and dynamics are dealt with at various points. The book is intended as a text for students and a reference for research workers and practising engineers. Logical presentation allows the clear introduction of topics such as finite element methods, automatic calculation of framed beam systems, dynamics, theory of plasticity and fracture mechanics. Key features of the text include: coverage of statics, dynamic, automatic computation of framed structures and the finite element method; an explicit consideration of all the static and dynamic operators of structural mechanics with their dual character; discussion of instability, plasticity and fracture; and examples and exercises with complete solutions.
