The Mechanics of Solids and Structures - Hierarchical Modeling and the Finite Element Solution

This book presents in one treatise – both – the basic mathematical models of solid / structural mechanics and effective finite element procedures for the solution of these models. The book can be used for teaching, in a modern way, solid and structural mechanics, finite element methods, and for self...
