9780443364389: Recent Advances in Thin-Walled Structures

Synopsis

Recent Advances in Thin-walled Structures presents the current state-of-the-art in this important research field. The book is dedicated to the contributions of Professor Dinar Camotim, who is one of the most prominent researchers in the field of thin-walled metal structures worldwide, who recently retired. Within the book nine leading international experts present their most recent and important research findings. The book begins with an introductory chapter that describes the contributions that Professor Dinar Camotin has made to the field during his long and established career and then each subsequent chapter focuses on different cutting-edge topics that have been written by world-renowned experts. The book will be a valuable reference resource for all those who are involved in the design and optimization of thin-walled structures presenting the latest achievements in the field, which will help them to address current challenges and prepare for future developments, and achievements.
