Product Description
Self-contained text focuses on Koiter postbuckling analyses, with mathematical notions of stability of motion. Basing minimum energy principles for static stability upon dynamic concepts of stability of motion, it develops asymptotic buckling and postbuckling analyses from potential energy considerations, with applications to columns, plates, and arches. 1974 edition.

Reviews


A page turner
It has basic concepts in stability. Mostly linear stability but does have topics in nonlinear stability. I got it as a reference for a class I teach and for example problems and have use a couple of its chapters. I do not think it is a strong first text though.
