Modern computer simulations make stress analysis easy. As they continue to replace classical mathematical methods of analysis, these software programs require users to have a solid understanding of the fundamental principles on which they are based.Develop Intuitive Ability to Identify and Avoid Physically Meaningless PredictionsApplied Mechanics o
Rezensionen / Stimmen
"It's an impressive piece of work. It covers an immense amount of material and is well written."
-James R. Barber, University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, USA
"A valuable treatise in mechanics of solids."
-David L. McDowell, Georgia Institute of Technology, Atlanta, USA
"This book is great for materials science and engineering students who are interested in both classic and state-of-the-art materials research. With both in-depth discussion and authoritative summary, it will be widely used in teaching and research in theoretical and computational mechanics of materials."
-Yanfei Gao, University of Tennessee, Knoxville, USA
