Synopsis

The study ofthree-dimensional continua has been a traditional part of graduate education in solid mechanics for some time. With rational simplifications to the three-dimensional theory of elasticity, the engineering theories of medium-thin plates and of thin shells may be derived and applied to a large class of engi- neering structures distinguished by a characteristically small dimension in one direction. Often, these theories are developed somewhat independently due to their distinctive geometrical and load-resistance characteristics. On the other hand, the two systems share a common basis and might be unified under the classification of Surface Structures after the German term Fliichentragwerke. This common basis is fully exploited in this book. A substantial portion of many traditional approaches to this subject has been devoted to constructing classical and approximate solutions to the governing equations of the system in order to proceed with applications. Within the context of analytical, as opposed to numerical, approaches, the limited general- ity of many such solutions has been a formidable obstacle to applications involving complex geometry, material properties, and/or loading. It is now relatively routine to obtain computer-based solutions to quite complicated situations. However, the choice of the proper problem to solve through the selection of the mathematical model remains a human rather than a machine task and requires a basis in the theory of the subject.

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

For one-semester, graduate-level courses in Introduction to Theory of Shells and Plates. This is the only text to offer concise, unified physical interpretations of the fundamental engineering aspects of shell and plate behavior. Designed to help students develop the physical and mathematical understanding required to perform analysis and design in an interactive computer-assisted environment, it uses an approach based on Vector Calculus (reducing the need for complicated trigonometry) and provides examples from many fields.
