Abstract
THE increasing complexity of aircraft structures and the many exact or approximate methods available for their analysis demand an integrated view of the whole subject, not only in order to simplify their applications but also to discover some more general truths and methods. There are also other reasons demanding a more comprehensive discussion of the basic theory. We mention only the increasing attention paid to temperature stresses and the realization of the importance of nonlinear effects. When viewed from all these aspects the idea of presenting a unified analysis appears more than necessary.
