Theory and Design of Plate and Shell Structures
ISBN: 9780412981814 / Angielski / Twarda / 423 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The design of many structures such as pressure vessels, aircrafts, bridge decks, dome roofs, and missiles is based on the theories of plates and shells. The degree of simplification needed to adopt the theories to the design of various structures depends on the type of structure and the re quired accuracy of the results. Hence, a water storage tank can be satis factorily designed using the membrane shell theory, which disregards all bending moments, whereas the design of a missile casing requires a more precise analysis in order to minimize weight and materials. Similarly, the design of a...

Global Structural Analysis of Buildings
ISBN: 9780415234832 / Angielski / Twarda / 360 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The global structural analysis of buildings can be carried out following two routes. First, sophisticated and complex computer packages based on the finite element method can handle even huge structures with a great number of elements. Second, analytical methods can also deal with whole structures leading to simple closed-form solutions, with the additional benefit of providing fast checking facilities for the computer based methods. This book follows the latter route. As well as describing and solving the complex theoretical problems of bracing systems with real-world examples, the author...
