This text presents classical as well as shear deformation beam and plate theories, and their solutions by analytical and numerical methods, for bending, buckling, and natural vibrations. Analytical solutions are based on the Navier and Levy solution methods, and numerical methods are based on the Rayleigh-Ritz method and the finite element method. Extensive illustrations and tables of numerical solutions are provided, as well as end of chapter exercises and references for additional reading.
