This two-volume set provides a concise review of the most recent research on plated structures and how it can be used in the field, written by a panel of distinguished editors and a team of international contributors.  In Volume Two, chapters discuss the modeling of plates for effects such as transverse shear deformation and rotary inertia, assembly of plates in forming thin-walled members, and changing material properties in composite, laminated and functionally graded plates. The contributors explain recent techniques for linear and nonlinear vibration analysis and concludes with a hybrid strategy suitable for parameter identification of plated structures and hydroelastic analysis of floating plated structures.
