Nonlinear Analysis of Structures

Muthukrishnan Sathyamoorthy

Nonlinear Analysis of Structures presents a complete evaluation of the  nonlinear static and dynamic behavior of beams, rods, plates, trusses,  frames, mechanisms, stiffened structures, sandwich plates, and shells.  These elements are important components in a wide variety of structures  and vehicles such as spacecraft and missiles, underwater vessels and  structures, and modern housing. Today's engineers and designers must  understand these elements and their behavior when they are subjected to  various types of loads.Coverage includes the various types of  nonlinearities, stress-strain relations and the development of  nonlinear governing equations derived from nonlinear elastic theory.  This complete guide includes both mathematical treatment and real-world  applications, with a wealth of problems and examples to support the  text. Special topics include a useful and informative chapter on  nonlinear analysis of composite structures, and another on recent  developments in symbolic computation.Designed for both self-study and  classroom instruction, Nonlinear Analysis of Structures is also an  authoritative reference for practicing engineers and scientists.One of  the world's leaders in the study of nonlinear structural analysis,  Professor Sathyamoorthy has made significant research contributions to  the field of nonlinear mechanics for twenty-seven years. His foremost  contribution to date has been the development of a unique transverse  shear deformation theory for plates undergoing large amplitude  vibrations and the examination of multiple mode solutions for plates.  In addition to his notable research, Professor Sathyamoorthy has also  developed and taught courses in the field at universities in India,  Canada, and the United States.
