Here is a systematic and clearly laid out text on structural and continuum mechanics. Containing hundreds of diagrams, drawings and examples, this work dovetails theoretical developments and figures in a beautifully conceived treatment of the subject. The book also covers stresses and strains in simple elements subjected to extension, bending, shear and torsion. For elementary structures, simple load displacements are obtained using both classical mathematics descriptions and engineering methods like Williot diagrams.

From the reviews:
"This is the second of two volumes … by Hartsuijker and Welleman (both, Dolft Univ. of Technology). … The concepts and applications are well presented; applications include both basic and advanced levels. The worked out examples nicely illustrate concepts. Figures and tables are clear and help understanding of the concepts. … In summary, the book is very well written and is a welcome addition to the literature of engineering mechanics. Summing Up: Recommended. Lower-division undergraduates through professionals." (M. G. Prasad, CHOICE, Vol. 45 (7), 2008)
