This book comprised of three separate volumes presents the recent
developments and research discoveries in structural and solid
mechanics; it is dedicated to Professor Isaac Elishakoff. This second
volume is devoted to the vibrations of solid and structural members.
Modern Trends in Structural and Solid Mechanics 2 has broad scope,
covering topics such as: exact and approximate vibration solutions of
rods, beams, membranes, plates and three-dimensional elasticity
problems, Bolotin s dynamic edge effect, the principles of plate theories
in dynamics, nano- and microbeams, nonlinear dynamics of shear
extensible beams, the vibration and aeroelastic stability behavior of
cellular beams, the dynamic response of elastoplastic softening
oscillators, the complex dynamics of hysteretic oscillators, bridging
waves, and the three-dimensional propagation of waves.
This book is intended for graduate students and researchers in the field
of theoretical and applied mechanics.
