Abstract
Status and some selected applications of computerized symbolic manipulation to structural mechanics problems are summarized. The applications discussed include: a) deriving the governing nonlinear differential equations for shallow shells; b) determination of the stationary conditions for variational functionals; c) application of Rayleigh-Ritz and Bubnov-Galerkin techniques; and d) generation of characteristic arrays for finite elements. The major advantages of using computerized symbolic manipulation in each of these applications are outlined. Other reported applications are discussed and future directions for research are outlined.
