Description - Design of Plate and Shell Structures by Maan H. Jawad
This
exciting text is written primarily for professional engineers
interested in designing plate and shell structures. It covers basic
aspects of theories and gives examples for the design of components
due to internal and external loads as well as other loads such as
wind and dead loads. Various derivations are kept relatively simple
and the resultant equations are simplified to a level where the
engineer may apply them directly to design problems. More elaborate
derivations and more general equations may be found in the
literature for those interested in a more in-depth knowledge of the
theories of plates and shells.
