Advanced Structural Mechanics

By Alberto Carpinteri

Building on the author's Structural Mechanics Fundamentals, this text presents a complete and uniform treatment of the more advanced topics in structural mechanics, ranging from beam frames to shell structures, from dynamics to buckling analysis, from plasticity to fracture mechanics, from long-span to high-rise civil structures.

Plane frames

Statically indeterminate beam systems: Method of displacements

Plates and shells

Finite element method

Dynamics of discrete systems

Dynamics of continuous elastic systems

Buckling instability

Long-span structures

High-rise structures

Theory of plasticity

Plane stress and plane strain conditions

Mechanics of fracture

This book serves as a text for graduate students in structural engineering, as well as a reference for practising engineers and researchers.
