Title: Vibrations of Shells and Rods
Description: This book is intended for engineers who deal with vibrations of rods and shells in their everyday practice but also wish to understand the subject from the mathematical point-of-view. Particularly the results concerning high-frequency vibrations may be new to them. The book can also serve as a textbook for advanced students. It may also be interesting for mathematicians who seek applications of the variational and asymptotic methods in elasticity and piezoelectricity. Only a minimum knowledge in advanced calculus and contiuum mechanics is assumed on the part of the reader.
Subjects: Engineering, Materials, Vibration, Shells (engineering), Bars (engineering), Elastic plates and shells, Elastic rods and wires
