It is a comprehensive text meeting the requirements of senior undergraduate and postgraduate students of civil, Structural and Mechanical engineering streams and practicing design engineers. The book provides a lucid exposition of the subject of advanced mechanics of solids and structures comprising the analysis of stresses in curved members, unsymmetrical bending, beams on elastic foundations, torsion of structural members together with the advanced topics of structural analysis including the matrix and Kani's methods and influence lines for indeterminate structures. With its up-to-date coverage, useful design examples and practical approach, the book should prove to be a satisfying text for engineering students.
