Description: Engineers need
to be familiar with the fundamental principles and concepts in materials and
structures in order to be able to design structurers to resist failures. For 4
decades, this book has provided engineers with these fundamentals. Thoroughly
updated, the book has been expanded to cover everything on materials and
structures that engineering students are likely to need.
Starting with
basic mechanics, the book goes on to cover modern numerical techniques such as
matrix and finite element methods. There is also additional material on
composite materials, thick shells, flat plates and the vibrations of complex
structures. Illustrated throughout with worked examples, the book also provides
numerous problems for students to attempt. This new edition introduces modern
numerical techniques, such as matrix and finite element methods. It covers
requirements for an engineering undergraduate course on strength of materials
and structures.
