This web page contains Links to Ed's personal library of papers, slides and other notes that he considers important or interesting.

This library is still in progress, apologies for the incompleteness.

Bio: What Ed claims to have accomplished.

Ed's Book: "Three Dimensional Static and Dynamic Analysis of Structures." (Both the 1998 and 2005 versions).
