Detailed description
This is the German translation from the original Russian Edition of SP Timoshenko's autobiography As I Remember.
The editor and translator, Prof. Dr. sc. techn. Albert Duda is Professor of Mechanics at the Technical University Berlin.
The memories of the famous professor of Applied Mechanics Stephen P. Timoshenko (1878-1972) give a wide view over engineering research work and education in the 20th century. His life experience between Ukraine and California, whole the time embedded in his powerful interest in engineering education on mechanics may be red with profit by people of today involved in all kind of engineering activities.
Timoshenko at the age of 85 years wrote his memories in Russian. Published in 1963 in Paris the book has been translated into English in 1968.
As I Remember describes the life of both the engineer and university teacher Timoshenko. Embedded in the respective professional, historical, political and cultural context of his stations between Ukraine and California, in front of the reader arises a personality distinguished by humaneness and faith to his principles, enterprising, honest, diligent and keen. Especially his learning and teaching experiences from various countries give insights in his engineering 'garage'. Timoshenko's view at the particular combination of theory und practice determined his method of working and thinking: grasping the principle of the investigated phenomenon and solving it with a minimum of mathematical expense.
