This book reviews the theoretical framework of nonlinear mechanics, covering computational methods, applications, parametric investigations of nonlinear phenomena and mechanical interpretation towards design. Builds skills via increasing levels of complexity.
From the reviews:
“The book presents a broad and intensive look at modern nonlinear structural mechanics, including: theoretical background, computational methods, and applications. … I would recommend this book to anyone interested in nonlinear structures and dynamics … . It represents a comprehensive reference for both its breadth of cutting edge topics and its exhaustive list of references. The care taken with the technical complexity of the illustrative models in each chapter is one of the key characteristics of this book.” (Justin Thomas Webster, Mathematical Reviews, March, 2014)
“The book is an impressive treatise on non-linear structural mechanics and the author needs to be congratulated for presenting important concepts of nonlinear dynamics and mechanics with elegance and simplicity. … the book by Lacarbonara is a comprehensive tour de force in nonlinear structural mechanics. … The book can lend itself well to several different versions of a graduate course on nonlinear mechanics. In addition, the references included make this book an excellent and unique reference source.” (B. Balachandran, Meccanica, Vol. 48, 2013)
