The Nonlinear Theory of Elastic Shells 2nd Edition by A. Libai (PDF)

Description

Elastic shells are pervasive in everyday life. Examples of these thin-walled structures range from automobile hoods to basketballs, veins and arteries, and soft drink cans. This book explains shell theory, with numerous examples and applications. This second edition not only brings all the material of the first edition entirely up to date; it also adds two entirely new chapters on general shell theory and general membrane theory. Aerospace, mechanical, and civil engineers, as well as applied mathematicians, will find this book a clearly written and thorough information source on shell theory.

User’s Reviews

Editorial Reviews: Review “This is an important work and the information is well presented.” The Structural Engineer”…a carefully written treatise…authored by two experts in the field who have themselves contributed significantly to the literature.” American Scientist”…highly recommended…” Applied Mechanics Reviews”…readable…clear and well explained. A very helpful resource for students and researchers, and recommended reading for all workers in shell theory.” Choice”…the authors make a new contribution to the theory of nonlinear shell equations…The clarity and the quite complete bibliography make this book very pleasant to read.” Mathematical Reviews Book Description A clear, thorough explanation of the nonlinear behaviour of shells, for researchers and graduate students.
