This book is based on two principles:
- the problem for an elastic body with initial stresses is similar to the elasticity theory problem, but the coefficients of the equations relating additional stresses and additional strains do not have all the symmetries incident to the elastic constants.
- since the problems of thin-walled structures are asymptotic in nature, asymptotic methods (including homogenization theory if the structure is non-uniform) should be used to analyze the problems.
Following these principles, one can derive the theory of inhomogeneous/composite structural elements directly from the elasticity theory without to use any additional/simplified hypothesis.
This book treats both homogeneous and non-uniform plates and beams. The chapters on uniform plates and beams may be considered as an alternative method deriving the classical stability equations.
The main part of the book is devoted to non-uniform plates and beams. When performing the analysis of the problems, three possible ranges of initial stresses are distinguished, which correspond to:
- in-plane forces in a plate and axial force in a beam (this is the case of Euler and Bryan forces);
- moments (it happens that the moments of initial stresses influence beams and do not influence plates);
- stresses of the order of elastic constants (which arise, for example, as a result of thermal heating), which affect elastic constants of plates and beams.
Local stresses are recorded for all the considered cases. It makes possible to apply the results presented in the book both to the problem of stability and the strength analysis of the structural elements with initial tresses.

If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back, or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.
You shall send back the goods or hand them over to Majestic Books, Hounslow, United Kingdom, without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods.
