Handbook of Elasticity Solutions

the long version

This Handbook is intended as a desk reference for researchers, students and engineers working in various areas of solid mechanics and quantitative materials science. It contains a broad range of elasticity solutions. In particular, it covers the following topics: -Basic equations in various coordinate systems, -Green's functions for isotropic and anisotropic solids, -Cracks in two- and three-dimensional solids, -Eshelby's problems and related results, -Stress concentrations at inhomogeneities, -Contact problems, -Thermoelasticity. The solutions have been collected from a large number of monographs and research articles. Some of the presented results were obtained only recently and are not easily available. All solutions have been thoroughly checked and transformed to a userfriendly form.
