Theory of Plates and Shells

Meer over het boek

Focusing on the analysis of plates and shells, the book is structured into four comprehensive sections. It begins with an introduction to elasticity theory and elastostatics. The second section explores the statics of disk structures, including isotropic and anisotropic disks. The third section addresses plate structures, covering various coordinates, approximation methods, and topics like buckling and laminated plates. Finally, the fourth section examines shells, differentiating between membrane and bending theories. It's aimed at both students and engineering professionals.
