<P>Modern computer simulations make stress analysis easy. As they continue to replace classical mathematical methods of analysis, these software programs require users to have a solid understanding of the fundamental principles on which they are based.</P><P></P><P><STRONG><U>Develop Intuitive Ability to Identify and Avoid Physically Meaningless Predictions</U></STRONG></P><P></P><P><STRONG>Applied Mechanics of Solids</STRONG> is a powerful tool for understanding how to take advantage of these revolutionary computer advances in the field of solid mechanics. Beginning with a description of the physical and mathematical laws that govern deformation in solids, the text presents modern constitutive equations, as well as analytical and computational methods of stress analysis and fracture mechanics. It also addresses the nonlinear theory of deformable rods, membranes, plates, and shells, and solutions to important boundary and initial value problems in solid mechanics.</P><P></P><P>The auth
