Theory of Elastic Stability The repercussions of this discoveryThe best available guide to the elastic stability of large structures, this book introduces the principles and theory of structural stability. It was co authored by the father of modern engineering mechanics, Stephen Timoshenko, and James Gere, who updated the materials and worked closely with Dr. Timoshenko. Relevant to aspects of civil, mechanical, and aerospace engineering, this classic covers the essentials of static and dynamic instabilities.
