Beginning with an overview of the theory developed over the last 60 years, Dr. Hodges addresses the kinematics of beam deformation, provides a simple way to characterize strain in an initially curved and twisted beam, and offers cross-sectional analysis for beams with arbitrary …
The author of this book covers aspects of both finite elasticity as well as finite plasticity. The text includes a number of examples and solved problems which should be of special interest to engineers and researchers from industrial practice.
