Description
A structural mechanical approach to finite element analysis, is given in this new edition. It contains over 750 problems (many of them new), introduces matrix methods early on, and includes Fortran algorithms for solving numerous problems. The emphasis is physical and practical, rather than mathematical, and advanced topics such as nonlinear material behavior and structural dynamics are given comprehensive treatment.
