Advanced Applied Stress Analysis is a sequel to Applied Stress Analysis, an earlier book by the author, and it is intended for use by senior undergraduates and postgraduates in engineering and architecture. Like its predecessor, Applied Stress Analysis, Advanced Applied Stress Analysis has been written in a style that caters for the mathematical difficulties experienced by many modern undergraduates.
Although, of course, in the industrial world, much structural design is carried out by computer methods, it is the present author's belief that structural designers should have a thorough knowledge of the principles and concepts of stress analysis, so that they can satisfactorily interpret the results presented in their computer output. The book, therfore, takes this into account, by removing those sections of traditional stress analysis that are better replaced by computer methods, but retaining those sections that introduce or enhance fundamental concepts and principles. In any case, for many structural designs, all that is required are the use of closed-loop trivial solutions, and if such solutions exist for the structure in question, then the structural designer might well as use these solutions.
The book contains a large selection of worked examples in every chapter, and all chapters contain a section entitled "Examples for Practice", which the reader might find useful for consolidating his/her newly acquired skills.
