- Book Synopsis
- Advanced Mechanics of Solids and Structures provides the classic methods that are essential for a wider audience, but also the advanced techniques based on mechanical behavior, material characterization and anisotropic elasticity with applications to composite materials. This title provides deep insight on important topics, such as the theory of beams with composite cross sections, slender beams, plates on elastic foundation, Airy's stress functions, contact stresses and the elastic stability of a variety of structural members. Mathematical tools, along with advanced methods of integral transforms are provided so the reader can follow along and apply learning. Therefore, not only is this an essential resource for BSc, MSc, PhD level students, but also a practical guide for researchers, consultants and industrial engineers in the field of mechanical, civil, and structural engineering.
