This book contains twelve invited lectures from the Third International Symposium on Structural Crashworthiness. Particular emphasis is given to the failure predictions for ductile metal structures under large dynamic loads and to the behaviour of composite and cellular structures.
Fifteen leading international experts were commissioned to write the chapters of this book, and additionally to present the keynote papers at this symposium.
"For a researcher working in the area of "shock and vibration", this book appears to be a boon." - Journal of Structural Engineering
