For the dark Titan, Thanos, the Infinity Gauntlet was the Holy Grial, the ultimate proze to be coveted above all else. With it came omnipotence, the absolute control over all aspects of time, space, power, reality, the mind and the soul. The gaining of supreme might meant the beginning of a black nightmare for the entire universe. On the edge of Armageddon and lead by the mysterious Adam Warlock, Earth's super heroes join in a desperate attempt to thwart the nihilistic god's insane plunge into galactic self-destruction. If they fail, the astral gods of the universe wait to step into the fray. But in such an awesome conflict, will anyone prevail? Will anyone survive? In the vein of other mega-crossovers, like Secret Wars and Contest of Champions, The Infinity Gauntlet is jam-packed with Marvel's most recognizable characters. Spider-Man, the Avengers, Captain America, the Fantastic Four, the Hulk and the X-Men all answer the call to action, with the fate of existence itself hanging in the balance. The Infinity Gauntlet is truly an unforgettable epic on a cosmic scale!

Using aspects of structural behaviour, good design practice and effective computational techniques to illustrate the importance of the fundamental theoretical concepts presented, this book provides a comprehensive introduction to the analysis and design of structures. The over-riding importance of equilibrium is emphasized and, together with related topics, is the subject of the first five chapters. After deflections have been introduced in chapter six, elastic theory, buckling, plastic theory and energy methods are all introduced and their range of applicability discussed. Numerous case studies are included to help readers gain an appreciation of how theory relates in practice to real life structures. With a broad range of worked examples, questions and references to further reading, Structures is the ideal course text for entry-level students on degree, HNC and HND courses.
