DESCRIPTION:
Treats topics by extending concepts and procedures a step or two beyond elementary mechanics of materials and emphasizes the physical view -- mathematical complexity is not used where it is not needed. Expands the coverage of fatigue, the reciprocal theorem, semi-inverse problems in elasticity, thermal stress, and buckling.. Includes new coverage of symmetry considerations, rectangular plates in bending, plastic action in plates, and critical speed of rotating shafts

Manzurul Nazim said Two Stars. It has some less pages.I had to print it from a soft copy of the book. Skips too many steps A Customer As a university professor, I chose this book for a graduate course because it seemed to cover the same topics that I wanted to cover.Unfortunately, after using it for a semester, I've found that the book always skips the key steps in a derivation. Often, it is only evident to the reader that steps have been skipped from the cryptic language used by the authors: "Using equilibrium and comp. Crappy Quality I just got this book in the mail and am really disappointed in its quality. For $130 I was expecting a good quality binding and pages. I bought it new from amazon and I can barely open the pages because they are warped so badly. The binding is so fragile I am afraid all the pages will pop out of it if I open it all the way.Prentice Hall - you guys should be ashamed of yourselves.
