Book Reviews of Formulas for Stress, Strain, and Structural Matrices
Book Review: This is a great reference book.
Summary: 5 Stars
This work is very extensive. Its a highly practical reference for the working engineer (mechanical, civil, aerospace) or student. If you're interested in the behavior of beams, plates, grillages, shells, shafts, gears, columns, joints, frames, etc. under constant or variable loads, I highly recommend it. It covers so many geometries and conditions, you will surely find good use for it. Plus, the advanced material is a great aid in deriving your own results for unusual geometries.
This book ranks up there with Roark's Formulas for Stress & Strain by Warren C. Young or Stresses in Plates and Shells by Ansel C. Ugural.
If you want to take advantage of the more advanced detailed coverage of transfer matrices and tabulated results, I also recommend you also buy Modern Formulas for statics and Dynamics, a Stress-and-Strain Approach, Walter D. Pilkey and Pin Yu Chang, 1978, which gives lots of worked examples. But this is not required to use most of the ready-made stress/strain formulations.
