Product Description This book provides a broad and comprehensive coverage of the theoretical, experimental, and numerical techniques employed in the field of stress analysis. Designed to provide a clear transition from the topics of elementary to advanced mechanics of materials. Its broad range of coverage allows instructors to easily select many different topics for use in one or more courses. The highly readable writing style and mathematical clarity of the first edition are continued in this edition. Major revisions in this edition include: an expanded coverage of three-dimensional stress/strain transformations; additional topics from the theory of elasticity; examples and problems which test the mastery of the prerequisite elementary topics; clarified and additional topics from advanced mechanics of materials; new sections on fracture mechanics and structural stability; a completely rewritten chapter on the finite element method; a new chapter on finite element modeling techniques employed in practice when using commercial FEM software; and a significant increase in the number of end of chapter exercise problems some of which are oriented towards computer applications. | ||

An advanced text Make sure that you keep your deformable solids book because this book does not contain any of the basics for reference. | ||
Composite Beams in Bending Well, I have lots of book and this is one of the books I have in my bookshelf. Obviously I have not read the entire book but I did of course read pages from 302 to 309. I was particularly interested in Composite Beams in Bending and those 7 pages did help me. I am not sure if there were any errors in the mathematical calculations as noted by some earlier reviewer but these 7 pages looked okay to me. www.freesoftware.com.my | ||
Extremely Complete and Thorough Mathematical derivations are VERY complete and relatively straight forward. There is a TON of material covered, and I constantly refer back to it in my graduate-level Mechancial Engr. courses. - even F.E.M. | ||
Advanced Strength and Applied Stress Analysis I have taught Advanced Strength of Materials at three different universities and without a doubt this is the worst textbook that I have ever used or seen. The text was selected before I started teaching at New Mexico Tech and I did not have time to change before the semester started. There are numerous mistakes in the example problems, the material is never explained in a fashion that the students can understand, the material is badly organized, and the author never states what assunptions are built in to the equations that he uses. A totally unsatisfactory book!! | ||
Too many mistakes!!!! I agree with the reader from Rocheste,NY. The book is great for an engineer, but the solutions given for the exercises are too often wrong. Therefore, I don't recommend this book for a student and I would be a bit ashamed of myself if, as a professor of mechanical engineering, I was the author of it. | ||
