What is The Nonlinear Theory of Elastic Shells about?
Elastic shells are pervasive in everyday life. Examples of these thin-walled structures range from automobile hoods to basketballs, veins and arteries, and soft drink cans. This book provides the physical and mathematical basis for the quantitative analysis of the behavior of such shells and presents numerous applications. As a second edition, it not only brings all the material of the first edition entirely up to date; it also adds two entirely new chapters on general shell theory and general membrane theory. Aerospace, mechanical, and civil engineers, as well as applied mathematicians, will find this book a clearly written and thorough information source on shell theory.
