in 1831, this work forms part of a collection of introductory volumes suggested
by Henry, Lord Brougham and Vaux, the Lord Chancellor, for the Society of the
Diffusion of Useful Knowledge. Due to the exceptional mathematical ability of
its author, however, it outgrew its original plan and has since been seen as a
rather more ambitious project. Praised by Somerville's contemporary Sir John
Herschel for its presentation of general astronomical theories and the
mechanical principles employed in their derivation, the work was a tour de
force of scientific and technical exposition. It is especially remarkable both
for its author's firm grasp of the subject, especially given her lack of formal
mathematical training, and for its clear outline of Newtonian philosophy for a
popular audience.

Theory Of Anisotropic Plates: Strength, Stability, & Vibrations
by: S. A.
Ambartsumyan
Book Description
0891166548 978-0891166542
In this
edition, the author has expanded and developed refined theories of anisotropic
plates, yielding results not only for classical problems in the theory of
anisotropic plates, but also for new problems in the mechanics of thin-wall
systems. Problems of strength, stability and vibrations of plates are
considered. This monograph should be of interest to different branches of
modern engineering, particularly to specialists concerned with the problems of
mechanics of composite materials.

Theory of elasticity
by: I, U Amenovich Amenzade
The theory of elasticity is concerned with the mechanics of defor- mable media which, after the removal of the forces producing defor- deformation, completely recover their original shape and give up all the work expended in the deformation. The first attempts to develop the theory of elasticity on the basis of the concept of a continuous medium, which enables one to ignore its molecular structure and describe macroscopic phenomena by the methods of mathematical analysis, date back to the first half of the eighteenth century

The Boundary Integral Approach to Static and Dynamic Contact Problems: Equality and Inequality Methods
by: Heinz Antes , P. D. Panagiotopoulos
The aim of the present book is the formulation and study of boundary integral equation methods for static and dynamic contact problems. Both the cases of equality and inequality contact constraints are examined. Those of the first kind lead to classical bilateral problems expressed as variational equalities, whereas the others lead to unilateral problems expressed as variational inequalities in the case of monotone constraints, or as hemivariational inequalities in the case of nonmonotone constraints.

Nonlinear Problems of Elasticity
by: Stuart Antman
Book Description
September 14, 2005 0387208801 2nd
Enlarged,
updated, and extensively revised, this second edition illuminates specific
problems of nonlinear elasticity, emphasizing the role of nonlinear material response.
Opening chapters discuss strings, rods, and shells, and applications of
bifurcation theory and the calculus of variations to problems for these bodies.
Subsequent chapters cover tensors, three-dimensional continuum mechanics,
three-dimensional elasticity , general theories of rods and shells, and
dynamical problems. Each chapter includes interesting, challenging, and
tractable exercises.
