Sommario/riassunto

This textbook presents the various lightweight design concepts using simple one-dimensional structures in a very understandable way and provides an easy introduction to the subject. It provides comprehensible information and advice on material selection and the geometric design of components. Students are also supported by a large number of exercises and their detailed solutions. It is the translation of the current third German edition. Contents Basics of Mechanics of Materials Lightweight Design Concepts: Material Selection
