Description: This treatise
contains topics on Solid Mechanics, the Theory of Slender Members and an
Introduction to the Theory of Structures, usually taught in the disciplines of
Strength of Materials of most Engineering courses, such as Civil, Mechanical
and Aeronautical Engineering.
In relation to
the most widely known treatises on Mechanics and Strength of Materials, a
greater scientific exactness and an extra emphasis on the theoretical
justification of the topics explained may be stressed. Axioms and non-demonstrated simplifying
hypotheses, which are common in this kind of book, are avoided. The depth of
the explanation is at an intermediate level between those works and treatises
based on a mathematical approach to the Theory of Elasticity and Continuum
Mechanics. However, the topics are always introduced from a physical point of
view, which is fundamental for an Engineer, and are anchored on over 300
figures of high graphical quality.
