There are three changes in the second edition. First with the help of readers and colleagues-thanks to all-I have corrected typographical errors and made minor changes in substance and style. Second I have added a fewmore Exercises especially at the end ofChapter4.Third I have appended a section on Differential Geometry the essential mathematical tool in the study of two-dimensional structural shells and four-dimensional general relativity. JAMES G. SIMMONDS vii Preface to the First Edition When I was an undergraduate working as a co-op student at North Ameri can Aviation I tried to learn something about tensors. In the Aeronautical Engineering Department at MIT I had just finished an introductory course in classical mechanics that so impressed me that to this day I cannot watch a plane in flight-especially in a turn-without imaging it bristling with vec tors. Near the end of the course the professor showed that if an airplane is treated as a rigid body there arises a mysterious collection of rather simple looking integrals called the components of the moment of inertia tensor.
