Engineering Mechanics of Solids and Structures

Product Description

Engineering Mechanics of Solids and Structures is essential for self-study and reference setting out the underlying mechanical concepts methods and theories applicable to a broad spectrum of structural and mechanical components – relevant to the analysis and design of a dome-like structure or a suspension bridge the hull of a ship or a spacecraft the mechanical component of an engine or the power train of a vehicle. The principles are given a thorough mathematical treatment which demonstrates the limitations of the approximations and provides the tools for more precise analyses while less mathematics is needed to show the behavior of simple structural components. This book covers both the L…
