Analysis and Optimization of Prismatic and Axisymmetric Shell Structures: Theory, Practice and Software (Softcover Reprint of the Original 1st 2003)Paperback - Softcover Reprint of the Original 1st 2003, 8 October 2012

This book will sell because shell structures are of increasing importance to structural, civil, aerospace and automotive engineers (among others) owing to their excellent strength-per-unit-mass ratios which in turn lead to fuel efficiencies, lower material cost, reduced structural stresses etc. How excellent those ratios are depends on the optimization of the structures concerned; the subject of Analysis and Optimization of Prismatic and Axisymmetric Shell Structures
