Book Description

July 1991
This book deals with finite element analysis of structures and will be of value to students of civil, structural and mechanical engineering at final year undergraduate and post-graduate level. Practising structural engineers and researchers will also find it useful. Authoritative and up-to-date, it provides a thorough grounding in matrix-tensor analysis and the underlying theory, and a logical development of its application to structures.

3.0 out of 5 stars It's just ok., January 30, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This book is adequate for a graduate course in advanced finite element techniques for structures. However, McGuire's matrix structures book is better and has more details. This book is certainly expensive for a paperback.
