Description
This self-contained text focuses on the Koiter postbuckling analyses, with mathematical notions of stability of motion. In relation to discrete and continuous systems, it bases the minimum energy principles for static stability upon the dynamic concepts of stability of motion, developing asymptotic buckling and postbuckling analyses from potential energy considerations, with applications to columns, plates, and arches. Its mathematical focus justifies the use of static approaches within the framework of a dynamic description, and its open-ended treatment--leaving room for applications to other disciplines--can be covered in a one-semester introductory course. 1974 edition.
