Mechanics of composite structural elements / H. Altenbach, J. Altenbach, W. Kissing.

Yet two extensions have been included: the linear elastic material behavior of isotropic and non-isotropic structural elements, and inhomogeneous material properties in the thickness direction. The Finite Element Analysis of laminate and sandwich structures is briefly presented. Many solved examples...
