This text provides students who have had statics and introductory strength of materials with the necessary tools
to perform stress analysis on aerospace structures such as wings, tails, fuselages, and space frames. It progresses
from introductory continuum mechanics through strength of materials of thin-walled structures to energy methods,
culminating in an introductory chapter on the powerful finite element method.
