on the plane, on the beach, anywhere!, 08 May 2007
once i bought this book i couldn't put it down, i was so absorbed finding out what would happen next when the load was applied to the struts- would they buckle or wouldn't they? that i got forgot to turn over on my sunlounger in sunny portstewart and was burnt quicker than a stray pallet on the shankill in july.

Good. Somewhat complex to the non mechanically minded., 12 Feb 2001
This book was the set text which was on the compulsory purchase list whilst I was studying at university, though not cheap, it was one of the best books I bought whilst at university. Two years on, and the book is still being put to plenty of use in the world of work. This book is an excellent buy for any Aerospace, Civil or Mechanical engineer.

Great reference book for Engineers , 03 Jul 2008
I have found this book to be very easy to follow and perfect for those situations where you need to find out how to solve a mathematical problem quickly without having to read the whole book each time.

I can recommend this book to other Engineering students, it will almost certainly help you with your studies.

Goldies but oldies, 31 May 1999
It would be fair to mention that the book was first published more than forty years ago, and that the most recent reference still dates back to the mid-fifties..

Excellent reference for those serious about aircraft, 09 Aug 1996
Aeroelasticity is one of those classic aeronautical references that presents material that is found nowhere else. It is the definitive work on scaling as applied to aircraft structures under aerodynamic loading. If you are serious about understanding the elastic behavior of an airplane's structure, you owe it to yourself to get this book and STUDY IT!

Quite simply, an engineer's must-have., 16 Feb 2001
Even though it's been 30 years since this book was published, it still is quite certainly the best book on elasticity around, and is particularly suitable for final year or postgraduate engineering students as well as practicing engineers.

Written by Stephen Timoshenko, the man who revolutionised the teaching of mechanics in the United States, the book describes theoretical 2D and 3D stress and strain from mid to advanced level and then goes on to practical applications such as torsion, bending, thermal stress and wave propagation through solids.

Of tremendous relevance in structural applications, from civil to mechanical and aerospace engineering, it remains a classic that is present in almost any structural engineer's bookcase.

Excellent no nonsense book for engineers, 28 Jun 2001
This is an excellent book about metal fatigue seen from an engineers perspective. If you want a no nonsense presentation which moves straight on to how you should solve your problem - then this is the book for you.

The balance between words and equations is perfect with no excessive use of equations you don't need in the end. Furthermore, the reference to other sources of text shows that the book is up to date.
