In this book the real analytic solutions for the "Disc with Circular Inclusion" under normal- and shear force at plane-strain state (EVZ) are presented. The associated solution process, which was developed according to the principle of statically indeterminate systems, is docume…
This book concerns the elastic stability of thin-walled structures -- one of the most challenging problems facing structural engineers because of its high degree of nonlinearity -- and introduces the innovative approach of using spectral analysis of the shapes and the stiffness …

A course in elasticity
by Fraeijs de Veubeke, Baudoin M.
fromApplied mathematical sciences
This book is based on lecture notes of the late Professor de Veubeke. The subject is presented at a level suitable for graduate students in engineering, physics, or mathematics. Some exposure to linear algebra, complex analysis, variational calculus, or basic continuum mechanics…
Quasibrittle (or brittle heterogeneous) materials are becoming increasingly important for modern engineering. They include concretes, rocks, fiber composites, tough ceramics, sea ice, bone, wood, stiff soils, rigid foams, glass, dental and biomaterials, as well as all brittle ma…
