Theory of Elasticity and Thermal Stresses

Synthesizing the contents of three classic textbooks by the authors, this book offers a comprehensive approach to theory and practice, problems, solutions and exercises which thoroughly explore the mathematical principles of Elasticity and Thermal Stress.

This book contains the elements of the theory and the problems of Elasticity and Thermal Stresses with full solutions. The emphasis is placed on problems and solutions and the book consists of four parts: one part is on The Mathematical Theory of Elasticity, two parts are on Thermal Stresses and one part is on Numerical Methods. The book is addressed to higher level undergraduate students, graduate students and engineers and it is an indispensable companion to all who study any of the books published earlier by the authors. This book links the three previously published books by the authors into one comprehensive entity.

Elements of theory of elasticity and thermal stresses and problems with complete solutions in one volume Includes special chapters on: The Method of Characteristics, The Finite Element Method for Coupled Thermoelasticity, and The Finite Boundary Element Method for Coupled Thermoelasticity. Unique approach to elasticity and thermal stresses
