Opis

Computational structural mechanics has enriched the rational practice of modern structural analysis, design and construction of building systems and other structures in recent years. This book reviews the state of knowledge and practice in computational structural engineering in the late 1990s and identifies research and development needs. It will help to stimulate co-operative research efforts among investigators in the USA and China and other countries.
