Short description
This book applies computer models and applications to thin-walled beams, which are used in mechanical and aerospace applications where thin, lightweight structures with high strength are needed. To date, there has been little information available on the concepts, let alone the computer analysis, of these structures. This book offers engineers in machine design, product design, and in aerospace important information to help them analyze and optimize their designs.
