PrefaceShort Bibliographical Presentation of Prof. Isaac Elishakoff
This book is dedicated to Prof. Isaac Elishakoff by his colleagues, friends and former students, on the occasion of his seventy-fifth birthday.
Figure P.1.Prof. Isaac Elishakoff
Prof. Isaac Elishakoff is an international leading authority across a broad area of structural mechanics, including dynamics and stability, optimization and antioptimization, probabilistic methods, analysis of structures with uncertainty, refined theories, functionally graded material structures, and nanostructures. He was born in Kutaisi, Republic of Georgia, on February 9, 1944.

Elishakoff holds a PhD in Dynamics and Strength of Machines from the Power Engineering Institute and Technical University in Moscow, Russia (Figure P.4 depicts the PhD defense of Prof. Isaac Elishakoff).

His supervisor was Prof. V. V. Bolotin (1926–2008), a member of the Russian Academy of Sciences (Figure P.5 shows Elishakoff with Bolotin some years later).

Currently, Elishakoff is a Distinguished Research Professor in the Department of Ocean and Mechanical Engineering at Florida Atlantic University. Before joining the university, he taught for one year at Abkhazian University, Sukhumi in the Republic of Georgia, and 18 years at the Technion – Israel Institute of Technology in Haifa, where he became the youngest full professor at the time of his promotion (Figure P.6 shows Elishakoff presenting a book to Prof. Josef Singer, Technion’s former president).

Elishakoff has lectured at about 200 meetings and seminars, including about 60 invited, plenary or keynote lectures, across Europe, North and South America, the Middle East and the Far East.
Prof. Elishakoff has made vital and outstanding contributions in a number of areas in structural mechanics. In particular, he has analyzed random vibrations of homogeneous and composite beams, plates and shells, with special emphasis on the effects of refinements in structural theories and cross-correlations. Free structural vibrations have been tackled using a non-trivial generalization of Bolotin’s dynamic edge effect method. Nonlinear buckling has been investigated using a novel method, incorporating experimental analysis of imperfections. As a result, the fundamental concept of closing the gap – spanning the entire 20th century – between theory and practice in imperfection-sensitive structures has been proposed. Novel methods of evaluating structural reliability have been proposed, taking into account the error associated with various low-order approximations, as well as human error; innovative generalization of the stochastic linearization method has been advanced. A non-probabilistic theory for treating uncertainty in structural mechanics has been established. Dynamic stability of elastic and viscoelastic structures with imperfections has been studied. An improved, non-perturbative stochastic finite element method for structures has been developed. The list of Elishakoff’s remarkable research achievements goes on.
His research has been acknowledged by many awards and prizes. He is a member of the European Academy of Sciences and Arts, a Fellow of the American Academy of Mechanics and ASME, and a Foreign Member of the Georgian National Academy of Sciences. Elishakoff is also a recipient of the Bathsheva de Rothschild prize (1973) and the Worcester Reed Warner Medal of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (2016).

Engineering Structures
).
– “This book is a collection of a surprisingly large number of closed form solutions, by the author and by others, involving the buckling of columns and beams, and the vibration of rods, beams and circular plates. The structures are, in general, inhomogeneous. Many solutions are published here for the first time. The text starts with an instructive review of direct, semi-inverse, and inverse eigenvalue problems. Unusual closed form solutions of column buckling are presented first, followed by closed form solutions of the vibrations of rods. Unusual closed form solutions for vibrating beams follow. The influence of boundary conditions on eigenvalues is discussed. An entire chapter is devoted to boundary conditions involving guided ends. Effects of axial loads and of elastic foundations are presented in two separate chapters. The closed form solutions of circular plates concentrate on axisymmetric vibrations. The scholarly effort that produced this book is remarkable” (Prof. Werner Soedel, then Editor-in-Chief of
Journal Sound and Vibration
).
– “The field has been brilliantly presented in book form …” (Prof. Luis A. Godoy
et al
., Institute of Advanced Studies in Engineering and Technology, Science Research Council of Argentina and National University of Cordoba, Argentina,
Thin-Walled Structures
).
– “Elishakoff is one of the pioneers in the use of the probabilistic approach for studying imperfection-sensitive structures” (Prof. Chiara Bisagni and Dr. Michela Alfano, Delft University of Technology;
AIAA Journal
).
– “Recently, Elishakoff
et al
. presented an excellent literature review on the historical development of Timoshenko’s beam theory” (Prof. Zhenlei Chen

On behalf of all the authors of this book, including those friends who were unable to contribute, we wish Prof. Isaac Elishakoff many more decades of fruitful works and collaborations for the benefit of world mechanics, in particular.
Modern Trends in Structural and Solid Mechanics 1 – the first of three separate volumes that comprise this book – presents recent developments and research discoveries in structural and solid mechanics, with a focus on the statics and stability of solid and structural members.
The book is centered around theoretical analysis and numerical phenomena and has broad scope, covering topics such as: buckling of discrete systems (elastic chains, lattices with short and long range interactions, and discrete arches), buckling of continuous structural elements including beams, arches and plates, static investigation of composite plates, exact solutions of plate problems, elastic and inelastic buckling, dynamic buckling under impulsive loading, buckling and post-buckling investigations, buckling of conservative and non-conservative systems, buckling of micro and macro-systems. The engineering applications concern both small-scale phenomena with micro and nano-buckling up to large-scale structures, including the buckling of drillstring systems.
Each of the three volumes is intended for graduate students and researchers in the field of theoretical and applied mechanics.
