Analysis and Optimization of Prismatic and Axisymmetric Shell Structures: Theory, Practice and Software

by Ernest Hinton, Johann Sienz, Mustafa Zakca

Book Overview

Shell-type structures can be found almost everywhere. They appear in natural forms but also as man-made, load-bearing components in diverse engineering systems. Mankind has struggled to replicate nature's optimization of such structures but using modern computational tools it is now possible to analyse, design and optimise them systematically. Analysis and Optimization of Prismatic and Axisymmetric Shell Structures features: comprehensive coverage...
