This book presents a complete and unified treatment of the
fundamental themes of structural mechanics, ranging from the
traditional to the most advanced topics, covering mechanics of
linear elastic solids, theory of beam systems, and phenomena of
structural failure. The book considers explicitly all the static
and kenetic operators of structural mechanics with their dual
character. Topics relating to structural symmetry are covered in a
single chapter while dynamics is dealt with at various points. The
logical presentation allows the clear introduction of topics such
as finite element methods, automatic calculation of framed beam
systems, plate and shell theory, theory of plasticity, and fracture
mechanics. Numerous worked examples, exercises with complete
solutions and illustrations make it accessible both as a text for
students and as a reference for research workers and practicing
engineers.
