Theory of Elasticity
This classic and globally recognized textbook provides a comprehensive treatment of the theory of elasticity, serving as a fundamental resource for engineers and researchers in structural and mechanical sciences. The authors utilize mathematical rigor to develop the general equations of equilibrium and compatibility, focusing on the analysis of stress and strain in deformable bodies. Key topics covered include two-dimensional problems in rectangular and polar coordinates, torsion of prismatic bars, bending of plates and shells, and the propagation of waves in elastic media. The text is noted for its clarity in presenting complex analytical methods, such as the use of stress functions and energy principles, to solve practical engineering problems involving stress concentrations and structural deformations.
