This comprehensive textbook focuses on the torsion in thin walled structures, highlights the nuances of the problems faced and succinctly discusses warping, bimoment, etc. Since in several thin walled structures, torsion is the only or dominant loading, this book addresses such unique structures as well. It provides a concise explanation of the warping properties and how they are evaluated. Thin walled structures with torsion as the preponderant loading are then treated using classical and ﬁnite element methods. No prior knowledge of the ﬁnite element method is required as the method is introduced from the basics. The same problem is worked out by both approaches so that the concepts are clearly understood by the readers. The book includes pedagogical features such as end-of-chapter questions and worked out examples to augment learning and self-testing. The book will be useful for graduate courses as well as for professional development coursework for structural engineersin the aerospace, mechanical, and civil engineering domains.

Dr. K. Rajagopalan obtained his bachelor’s and master’s in Civil Engineering and Structural Engineering, respectively, from the University of Madras, India. He pursued his Ph.D. from the Indian institute of Technology (IIT) Madras for his research on the ﬁnite element buckling analysis of thin walled shell structures. Dr. Rajagopalan has worked as a scientist with CSIR, India and as a professor with IIT Madras. He worked extensively in the areas of thin walled structures mainly in the classical and ﬁnite element analysis of ship structures, power plant structures, storage structures, calandria (nuclear)vessels, boiler supporting structures, submarine structures, steel and concrete building structures and of similar ilk.
