Description for Masonry Constructions: Mechanical Models and Numerical Applications
Paperback. This monograph firstly provides a detailed description of the constitutive equation of masonry-like materials, clearly setting out its most important features. It then goes on to provide a numerical procedure to solve the equilibrium problem of masonry solids. Series: Lecture Notes in Applied and Computational Mechanics. Num Pages: 176 pages, 2 black & white tables, biography. BIC Classification: PHD; TGB; TGMD4; UGC. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 234 x 156 x 9. Weight in Grams: 278.
