Stephen P. Timoshenko Knihy

Timoshenko's classic text on vibrations. (Printed on archival quality paper.)

Covers standard topics of the mechanics of materials, including the analysis and design of structural members subjected to axial loads, torsion and bending, as well as such concepts as stress, strain, elastic and inelastic behaviour and strain energy.

Stephen Timoshenko was the world-renowned authority in the field of mechanical engineering, and a prize named after him commemorates his contributions as author and teacher. The Timoshenko Medal is given annually for distinguished contributions in applied mechanics. As the father of modern engineering mechanics, Timoshenko wrote many of the essential early works in engineering mechanics, elasticity and strength of materials. Many of them are still in wide use. He wrote many textbooks on the subject, of which "Vibration Problems in Engineering" is one of his masterpieces.
