Elastic plates form a class of very important mechanical structures that appear in a wide range of practical applications, from building bodies to microchip production. As the sophistication of industrial designs has increased, so has the demand for greater accuracy in analysis.…
Interstice: Flexure is the thesis exhibition of Wilson Minshall. This exhibition is comprised of three interspersed bodies of work: a series of masking tape weavings and objects containing image transfers of publicly-sourced documents tracing Wilson’s previously erased Tsalagi a…
This groundbreaking book resolves the main lacuna in Kirchhoff theory of bending of plates in the Poisson-Kirchhoff boundary conditions paradox through the introduction of auxiliary problem governing transverse stresses. The book highlights new primary bending problem which is f…
There are a large number of reinforced concrete (RC) buildings in seismically active areas of the world that are not designed and constructed in accordance with modern seismic design provisions. These buildings are vulnerable to severe damage or collapse due to their low lateral…
