Elementary Continuum Mechanics for Everyone, 2013 With Applications to Structural Mechanics Solid Mechanics and Its Applications Series, Vol. 194

Langue : Anglais

Auteur :

Couverture de l’ouvrage Elementary Continuum Mechanics for Everyone

The book opens with a derivation of kinematically nonlinear 3-D continuum mechanics for solids.

Then the principle of virtual work is utilized to derive the simpler, kinematically linear 3-D theory and to provide the foundation for developing consistent theories of kinematic nonlinearity and linearity for specialized continua, such as beams and plates, and finite element methods for these structures.

A formulation in terms of the versatile Budiansky-Hutchinson notation is used as basis for the theories for these structures and structural elements, as well as for an in-depth treatment of structural instability.
