Theory of Elastic Stability
Theory of Elastic Stability is a seminal work in the field of structural mechanics, providing a comprehensive mathematical treatment of the stability of bars, plates, and shells under various loading conditions. S. Timoshenko, a pioneer in applied mechanics, explores the critical loads at which structural elements transition from a stable equilibrium to an unstable state, leading to buckling or collapse. The text covers fundamental topics such as the buckling of columns with various end conditions, the stability of thin-walled structures, and the effects of initial imperfections on load-carrying capacity. By integrating rigorous theoretical derivations with experimental observations, this book serves as an essential reference for engineers and researchers in civil, mechanical, and aeronautical engineering to ensure the safety and reliability of slender structural components.
