The theoretical as well as practical aspects of the strength of materials are presented in this book in a systematic way to enable students to understand the basic principles and prepare themselves for the tasks of designing large structures subsequently. The system of units, notation and convention... More

The Eight Edition of this highly acclaimed book incorporates current industrial trends and lists the ASTM standards. The text encompasses important material systems- metals, ceramic, plastics, composites and adhesives, and gives a detailed account of the most recent developments. It also provides t... More

Avoiding or controlling fatigue damage is a major issue in the design and inspection of welded structures subjected to dynamic loading. Life predictions are usually used for safe life analysis, i.e. for verifying that it is very unlikely that fatigue damage will occur during the target service life ... More

Today, Fracture Mechanics is a well known topic within the scientific community. Applications of Fracture Mechanics can be found in various fields ranging from solid mechanics and structures to materials sciences and computational mechanics. However, most of these results apply only to linear fractu... More

Completely Revised and Redesigned For Today's Students Since 1960, this leading text has taught thousands of students the fundamentals of non rigid body mechanics. Now, the new author team of Riley, Sturges, and Morris have revised the text to appeal to today's students by updating the illustration ... More
