The state-of-the-art in structural design is surveyed in this book, which covers a wide variety of loading conditions, both static and dynamic. The authors present the latest concepts and methods used in the design of structures, and machinery and devices subject to severe and unpredictable loads. They also address fracturing, tearing of thin materials, impact loading, failure of brittle material, collapse of thin-walled structures, and bending and denting failure. The principles presented are applicable in many fields of design engineering, from aerospace structures to product packaging.
