The contributions to this volume cover issues involving advanced types of structures, particularly those based on new concepts or new materials. The latest developments in design, optimisation, manufacturing and experimentation are highlighted. There...Loe edasi...
Solid Mechanics, as compared to Mechanics of Materials or Strength of Materials, is generally considered to be a higher-level course. It is usually taught in higher semesters to senior undergraduate students. However, there is no suitable textbook on...Loe edasi...
Tensegrity structures are pre-stressed systems of cables and bars in which no bar is connected to the other and the structure has no continuous rigid skeleton. This general introduction presents an original general method for the design of tensegr...Loe edasi...
Dynamic stability analysis identifies the unstable regions which adversely affect a tensegrity structures durability. This book presents principles, a geometrically non-linear model, methods, and examples from basic 2D structures to more complex...Loe edasi...
Tackling the analytical, design, assessment, and hazard mitigation issues associated with short-duration dynamic loads, this book examines how impulsive loads affect various types of structures. It provides the necessary material to help ensure th...Loe edasi...
