Preface
In modern engineering, as a basis of construction, arches have a diverse range of
applications. Today the theory of arches has reached a level that is suitable for most
engineering applications. Many methods pertaining to arch analysis can be found in
scientific literature. However, most of this material is published in highly
specialized journals, obscure manuals, and essible books. This is not
surprising, as the intensive development of arch theory, particularly stability and
vibration have mostly occurred in the 1940s to the 1960s. Therefore, most engineers
lack the opportunity to utilize these developments in their practice.
