With increasingly sophisticated structures involved in modern engineering, knowledge of the complex vibration behavior of plates, shells, curved membranes, ring

This unique book explores both theoretical and experimental aspects of nonlinear vibrations and stability of shells and plates. It is ideal for researchers, pro

Vibrations drive many engineering designs in today's engineering environment. There has been an enormous amount of research into this area of research over the

This book is based on my experiences as a teacher and as a researcher for more than four decades. When I started teaching in the early 1950s, I became intereste
