Statics and Resistance of Solids
An Introduction to the History of Structural Mechanics

Category : Technology & Engineering

Pages : 324
Book Description
This book is one of the finest I have ever read. To write a foreword for it is an honor, difficult to accept. Everyone knows that architects and master masons, long before there were mathematical theories, erected structures of astonishing originality, strength, and beauty. Many of these still stand. Were it not for our now acid atmosphere, we could expect them to stand for centuries more. We admire early architects' visible success in the distribution and balance of thrusts, and we presume that master masons had rules, perhaps held secret, that enabled them to turn architects' bold designs into reality. Everyone knows that rational theories of strength and elasticity, created centuries later, were influenced by the wondrous buildings that men of the sixteenth, seventeenth, and eighteenth centuries saw daily. Theorists know that when, at last, theories began to appear, architects distrusted them, partly because they often disregarded details of importance in actual construction, partly because nobody but a mathematician could understand the aim and func tion of a mathematical theory designed to represent an aspect of nature. This book is the first to show how statics, strength of materials, and elasticity grew alongside existing architecture with its millenial traditions, its host of successes, its ever-renewing styles, and its numerous problems of maintenance and repair. In connection with studies toward repair of the dome of St. Peter's by Poleni in 1743, on p.

Book Description
The second edition of Statics and Mechanics of Materials: An Integrated Approach continues to present students with an emphasis on the fundamental principles, with numerous applications to demonstrate and develop logical, orderly methods of procedure. Furthermore, the authors have taken measure to ensure clarity of the material for the student. Instead of deriving numerous formulas for all types of problems, the authors stress the use of free-body diagrams and the equations of equilibrium, together with the geometry of the deformed body and the observed relations between stress and strain, for the analysis of the force system action of a body.

Resistance and Deformation of Solid Media
Author: Daniel I. RosenthalPublisher: Elsevier
ISBN: 1483145719
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 372
Book Description
Resistance and Deformation of Solid Media is an introduction to the analysis of the resistance and deformation of solid media, specifically when they behave under the application of external loading. The book includes different concepts such as the elastic, plastic, and viscous properties of different solid materials; the basic principles of equilibrium of forces and movements; continuity and deformation; the homogenous, uniaxial, and biaxial states of strain and stress with different materials; structural and material instability; and fracture. Aimed not only for future structural engineers but also all future engineers, this book provides information on the mechanical behavior of solid media and prepares its readers to a more advanced unified field theory.
