Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:

State-of-the-art and practical in perspective, this exploration of stress analysis focuses on techniques for analysis in realistic settings. It provides coverage of the mechanics of materials, theory of elasticity methods and computer-oriented numerical methods, all supported with a broad range of fully worked-out examples. The fourth edition adds and expands coverage of mechanics of materials theory, three-dimensional stress and strain transformations, strain energy in common structural members, stress concentration in typical members; elastic-plastic analysis of thick-walled cylinders; application of strain energy and variational methods to beams on elastic foundations, buckling of columns, and plates; a complete new set of illustrative examples and problems, many taken from engineering practice; and tables covering computer programs for principal stresses and area properties, deflection of beams, material properties and conversion factors.

Includes bibliographical references (pages 552-556) and index.

Analysis of stress -- Strain and stress - Strain relations -- Two-dimensional problems in elasticity -- Criteria for material failure -- Bending of beams -- Torsion of prismatic bars -- Numerical methods -- Axisymmetrically loaded members -- Beams on elastic foundations -- Energy methods -- Elastic stability -- Plastic behavior of materials -- Plates and shells.
