Hi,
Question: Can you make any suggestions of entry level books that will help me to follow a career as a Stress Engineer?
Background:
I've been in the nuclear industry now for 1.5 years (Graduate role) and tried lots of job roles in Mechanical Engineering; Manufacturing, Safety, Stress and Design. I've now found my 'niche' and wish to purse a career as a Stress Engineer.
I'm looking for a book or two that I can use as a reference to help me understand the fundamental theories behind stress and strain. Maybe a little less technical than Roarks. I've forgotten a few bits I learned through uni, so a book aimed at someone at Uni or just leaving will be great.
Thanks
