Informationen zum Autor Lewis P. Felton and Richard B. Nelson are the authors of Matrix Structural Analysis, published by Wiley. Klappentext The field of structural analysis has experienced profound change in the past three decades. This book presents a rigorous, concise development of the concepts of modern matrix structural analysis with emphasis on techniques and methods which are the basis for the Finite Element Method. The material is presented in a traditional manner. Basic analytical tools set the groundwork for understanding more complex concepts. Meaningful examples which illustrate the underlying theories and procedures are provided throughout the text, presented in a step-by-step format to promote understanding.
