"…useful as a graduate level textbook as well as a functional handbook for the professional engineer." (<i>E-STREAMS</i>, February 2005)
ALI H. NAYFEH received his BS in engineering science and his MS and PhD in aeronautics and astronautics from Stanford University. He holds honorary doctorates from Marine Technical University, Russia, Technical University of Munich, Germany, and Politechnika Szczecinska, Poland. He is currently University Distinguished Professor of Engineering at Virginia Tech. He is the Editor of the Wiley Series in Nonlinear Science and Editor in Chief of Nonlinear Dynamics and the Journal of Vibration and Control.<br> PERNGJIN FRANK PAI received his PhD in engineering mechanics from Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University. He is the C. W. LaPierre Professor of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering at the University of Missouri-Columbia. His research concentrates on highly flexible deployable/inflatable structures, structural damage detection, and nonlinear finite elements (www.missouri.edu/~maepai).
A unified approach to the modeling and analysis of geometrically nonlinear structures<br> <br> Nonlinear modeling and analysis of structures is a complex but important step in the design and optimization of modern structural systems. Bridging the gap between the practicing engineer and the applied mathematician, Linear and Nonlinear Structural Mechanics:<br> * Presents mathematically consistent and systematic derivations of comprehensive structural theories<br> * Details the basic principles of linear and nonlinear structural mechanics<br> * Shows how to perform nonlinear structural analysis<br> * Points out important nonlinear structural dynamic behaviors<br> * Provides ready-to-use governing equations and boundary conditions, ranging from simple linear to complex nonlinear ones, for strings, cables, beams, plates, and shells<br> <br> Designed to be used as a professional reference for structural engineers as well as a graduate-level textbook, this book provides a unique, unified approach that the reader can readily extend to formulate and analyze different or more complex structures.
