Plates: Theories and Applications provides a comprehensive introduction to plate structures, covering classical theory and applications. It considers plate structures in several forms, starting from the simple uniform, thin, homogeneous metallic structure to more efficient and durable alternatives involving features such as variable-thickness, lamination, sandwich construction, fiber reinforcement, functional gradation, and moderately-thick to very-thick geometry.  Different theoretical models are then discussed for analysis and design purposes starting from the classical thin plate theory to alternatives obtained by incorporation of appropriate complicating effects or by using fundamentally different assumptions. Plates: Theories and Applications alsocovers the latest developments on the topic.

Structural Elements Design Manual: Working With Eurocodes is the structural engineers 'companion volume' to the four Eurocodes on the structural use of timber, concrete, masonry and steelwork. For the student at higher technician or first degree level it provides a single source of information on the behaviour and practical design of the main elements of the building structure. With plenty of worked examples and diagrams, it is a useful textbook not only for students of structural and civil engineering, but also for those on courses in related subjects such as architecture, building and surveying whose studies include the design of structural elements.

Fundamental Finite Element Analysis and Applications: with Mathematica^® and MATLAB^® Computations is an innovative, practical guide to discovering the Finite Element Method (FEM). Providing a helpful balance between theory and application, it presents the FEM as a tool to find approximate solutions of differential equations, making it a useful resource for students from a variety of disciplines. Using a unique combination of live Mathematica^® and MATLAB^® implementations, along with problems in both ANSYS^® and ABAQUS^® formats, this hands-on book reveals the logic behind the equations to facilitate a full understanding of methods and solutions. In nine convenient chapters, Fundamental Finite Element Analysis and Applications: with Mathematica^® and MATLAB^® .Computations covers: Finite Element Method: The Big Picture * Mathematical Foundation of the Finite Element Method * One-Dimensional Boundary Value Problems * Trusses, Beams, and Frames * Two-Dimensional Elements * Mapped Elements * Analysis of Elastic Solids * Transient Problems * p-Formulation. An associated Web site (wiley.com/go/bhatti) includes interactive application files and notebooks for Mathematica^®, MATLAB^®, ANSYS^®, and ABAQUS^®, with expanded exercises to use with the book. Fundamental Finite Element Analysis with Mathematica^® and MATLAB^® Computations is a clear and accessible learning tool for senior undergraduate and graduate-level students. *Finite Element Analysis with Mathematica and Matlab Computations and Practical Applications is an innovative, hands-on and practical introduction to the Finite Element Method that provides a powerful tool for learning this essential analytic method.

Comprehensive, up-to-date coverage of reinforced concrete slabs-from leading authorities in the field. Offering an essential background for a thorough understanding of building code requirements and design procedures for slabs, Reinforced Concrete Slabs, Second Edition provides a full treatment of today's approaches to reinforced concrete slab analysis and design. Now brought up to date with a wealth of new material on computer optimization, the equivalent frame method, lateral load analysis, and other current topics, the new edition of this classic text begins with a general discussion of slab analysis and design, followed by an exploration of key methods (equivalent frame, direct design, and strip methods) and theories (elastic, lower bound, and yield line theories). Later chapters discuss other important issues, including shear strength, serviceability, membrane action, and fire resistance. Comprehensive and accessible, Reinforced Concrete Slabs, Second Edition appeals to a broad range of readers-from senior and graduate students in civil and architectural engineering to practicing structural engineers, architects, contractors, construction engineers, and consultants.

This book takes a fresh, student-oriented approach to teaching the material covered in the senior- and first-year graduate-level matrix structural analysis course. Unlike traditional texts for this course that are difficult to read, Kassimali takes special care to provide understandable and exceptionally clear explanations of concepts, step-by-step procedures for analysis, flowcharts, and interesting and modern examples, producing a technically and mathematically accurate presentation of the subject.
