Starting with the strength experiments of Leonardo da Vinci and Galileo, the author examines the emergence of individual structural analysis methods and their formation into theory of structures in the 19th century. For the first time, a book of this kind outlines the development from classical theory of structures to the structural mechanics and computational mecStructural analysis (Engineering)HistoryEngineeringStructural analysis (Engineering)History.Engineering.624624.1709Kurrer Karl-Eugen478410MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910818463303321The history of the theory of structures2128152UNINA
