This book contains eight chapters treating the stability of all major areas of the flexural theory. It covers the stability of structures under mechanical and t

This volume contains the written texts of the papers presented at a Symposium on Buckling of Structures held at Harvard University in June 1974. This symposium,

This monograph deals with buckling and postbuckling behavior of thin plates and thin-walled structures with flat wall subjected to static and dynamic load. The

The four lectures presented in this volume discuss recent ideas such as bifurcation, catastrophe and singular theory in elastic post-buckling but avoid advanced
