A valuable research tool in continuum mechanics for more that 50 years, this highly regarded engineering manual focuses on three important aspects of elasticity theory: finite elastic deformations, complex variable methods for two-dimensional problems for both isotropic and aeolotropic bodies, and shell theory. Additional topics include three-dimensional problems for isotropic and transversely isotropic bodies.
