Clive L. Dym, Stability theory and its applications to structural mechanics, Courier Dover Publications, 2002, 206 pages

Self-contained text focuses on Koiter postbuckling analyses, with mathematical notions of stability of motion. Basing minimum energy principles for static stability upon dynamic concepts of stability of motion, it develops asymptotic buckling and postbuckling analyses from potential energy considerations, with applications to columns, plates, and arches. 1974 edition.
