Principles of Solid Mechanics 1st Edition by Jr. Rowland Richards (PDF)

Description

Evolving from more than 30 years of research and teaching experience, Principles of Solid Mechanics offers an in-depth treatment of the application of the full-range theory of deformable solids for analysis and design. Unlike other texts, it is not either a civil or mechanical engineering text, but both. It treats not only analysis but incorporates design along with experimental observation. Principles of Solid Mechanics serves as a core course textbook for advanced seniors and first-year graduate students. The author focuses on basic concepts and applications, simple yet unsolved problems, inverse strategies for optimum design, unanswered questions, and unresolved paradoxes to intrigue students and encourage further study. He includes plastic as well as elastic behavior in terms of a unified field theory and discusses the properties of field equations and requirements on boundary conditions crucial for understanding the limits of numerical modeling.Designed to help guide students with little experimental experience and no exposure to drawing and graphic analysis, the text presents carefully selected worked examples. The author makes liberal use of footnotes and includes over 150 figures and 200 problems. This, along with his approach, allows students to see the full range, non-linear response of structures.

User’s Reviews

Reviews from Amazon users which were colected at the time this book was published on the website:

⭐Simply put, it is a joy to read this book. In particular the footnotes.

⭐The content of the book is excellent, but in the kindle version the figures are for some reason distorted beyond readability. I hope there is a way to fix this, it makes the understanding of the content much more difficult

⭐If the book’s price is slightly lower than the current one, I would give this book a 4 star rating. However,it is a good additional book the Solid Mechianics to your library.
