Description

Elastic structures, conceived as slender bodies able to transmit loads, have been studied by scientists and engineers for centuries. By the seventeenth century several useful theories of elastic structures had emerged, with applications to civil and mechanical engineering problems. In recent years improved mathematical tools have extended applications into new areas such as geomechanics and biomechanics. This book, first published in 1998, offers a critically filtered collection of the most significant theories dealing with elastic slender bodies. It includes mathematical models involving elastic structures, which are used to solve practical problems with particular emphasis on nonlinear problems. This collection of interesting and important problems in elastic structures will appeal to a broad range of scientists, engineers and graduate students working in the area of structural mechanics.

This book, first published in 1998, is a collection of significant theories and mathematical models, dealing with elastic slender bodies.
Reviews
'The author should be congratulated for this work since it is the first time that a book brings about the final result of combining many direct and indirect contributions to this subject. I recommend this book to structural engineers who are engaged in engineering mechanics problems in industry and research.' M. Y. H. Bangash, The Structural Engineer
'The general opinion of this reviewer it that Villaggio's book is valuable and that it will constitute an important reference in the years to come.' Society for Industrial and Applied Mathematics

The shipping was just superior

The shipping was just superior; not even one of the books was in contact with the shipping box -anywhere-, not even a corner or the bottom, so all the books arrived in perfect condition. The international shipping took around 2 weeks, so pretty great too.

Found a hard to get book…

Finding a hard to get book on Booksplease and with it not being an over inflated price was great. Ordering was really easy with updates on despatch. The book was packaged well and in great condition. I will certainly use them again.
