Description for The Behavior of Thin Walled Structures: Beams, Plates, and Shells
Paperback. Series: Mechanics of Surface Structure. Num Pages: 194 pages, biography. BIC Classification: PHD; TN. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 234 x 156 x 10. Weight in Grams: 314.
This book is intended primarily as a teaching text, as well as a reference for individual study in the behavior of thin walled structural components. Such structures are widely used in the engineering profession for spacecraft, missiles, aircraft, land-based vehicles, ground structures, ocean craft, underwater vessels and structures, pressure vessels, piping, chemical processing equipment, modern housing, etc. It presupposes that the reader has already completed one basic course in the mechanics or strength of materials. It can be used for both undergraduate and graduate courses. Since beams (columns, rods), plates and shells comprise components of so many of these modern ... Read more

Reviews for The Behavior of Thin Walled Structures: Beams, Plates, and Shells
`This book is highly recommended as a text for a first course on plates and shells with emphasis on engineering applications. It can also be used for self-study and will provide a solid background for further learning.' Journal of Applied Mechanics, 57 (1990)
