Abstract
This practical volume deals exclusively with the design and analysis of nonlinear structures, in which large deformations (displacement and other stresses) are critical. The book presents new formulations and approaches in an accessible format to aspects of structures where analysis falls short. It offers a unified approach to geometric nonlinear effects for structures from stresses to membrane shells and an innovative mathematical approach to this class of problem. The accompanying disc contains Fortran versions of source codes and examples for analysis, a valuable teaching tool extensively class tested by the authors.
