Beschreibung
This book will sell because shell structures are of increasing importance to structural, civil, aerospace and automotive engineers (among others) owing to their excellent strength-per-unit-mass ratios which in turn lead to fuel efficiencies, lower material cost, reduced structural stresses etc. How excellent those ratios are depends on the optimization of the structures concerned; the subject of Analysis and Optimization of Prismatic and Axisymmetric Shell Structures
Downloadable programs allow the theories in the book to be put into practice immediately Their flexibility allows the reader to use them as a research tool or as a teaching aid. The reader will learn how to integrate geometric shape definition, automatic mesh generation, accurate finite element and finite strip simulation with sensitivity analysis and mathematical programming techniques to perform both thickness and shape optimization for shell structures. The reader will learn how to understand the basic format of efficient structural analysis codes based on finite element and finite strip analysis.

From the reviews:"The book, consisting of 5 parts, starts from introduction and then presents static analysis and optimization. Parts 3 and 4 are devoted to free-vibration analysis and optimization, and to dynamic and buckling analysis and optimization. … The book is accessible to the novice and expert alike, and can be used by students, engineers and scientists working in automotive, aerospace and civil engineering." (Stefan Jendo, Zentralblatt MATH, Vol. 1088 (14), 2006)
