Incorporating new, revised, and updated information, this book presents a complete and up-to-date treatment of classical and shear deformation plates and shells, from the basic derivation of theories to analytical and numerical solutions. This second edition provides new material on the theory and analysis of shells, featuring an additional chapter devoted to the topic.

Incorporating new, revised, and updated information, this book presents a complete and up-to-date treatment of classical and shear deformation plates and shells, from the basic derivation of theories to analytical and numerical solutions. This second edition provides new material on the theory and analysis of shells, featuring an additional chapter devoted to the topic. The book includes new sections that address Castigliano's theorems, axisymmetric buckling of circular plates, the relationships between the solutions of classical and shear deformation theories, and the nonlinear finite element analysis of plates. It also contains many figures of theories, formulations, and solution methods.
