This book covers different topics of nonlinear mechanics in complex structures, such as the appearance of new nonlinear phenomena and the behavior of finite-dimensional and distributed nonlinear systems, including numerous systems directly connected with important technological …
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 …

An introduction to mechanics
by Kleppner, Daniel, Kolenkow, Robert J.
fromEngineering mechanics series
In the years since it was first published, this classic introductory textbook has established itself as one of the best-known and most highly regarded descriptions of Newtonian mechanics. Intended for undergraduate students with foundation skills in mathematics and a deep intere…
Intended for undergraduate students with foundation skills in mathematics and a deep interest in physics, it systematically lays out the principles of mechanics: vectors, Newton's laws, momentum, energy, rotational motion, angular momentum and noninertial systems, and includes c…
