Summary "Offering more than 30% new material, this Third Edition illustrates the behavior and design of vibrating shells and structures and provides analytical approaches and discussions not found in any other text on the topic." "Detailing practical applications, as well as information of historical and theoretical importance, this reference/text will prove valuable as a quick reference tool or self-study aid."
"Completely revised and updated, the Third Edition contains expanded sections on natural frequencies and modes, elastic foundations, and simplified shell equations ... rare discussions of natural frequency and mode solutions by power series ... the first formulation of a moment loading dynamic Green's function for shells and plates ... new examples showcasing a parabolic cylindrical shell, shells composed of homogeneous and isotropic lamina, and a doubly-curved plate solution based on the Donnell-Mushtari-Vlasov theory ... and strain energy equations for a variety of situations."--BOOK JACKET
