Abstract The introduction examines, in a systematic way, the most significant contributions to the thermal stress analysis for both metallic and composite structures. Moreover, it provides a detailed and comprehensive discussion of the thermoelasticity and the thermal stress analysis of advanced structures. Known books on the same topics are reviewed. The importance of using refined beam, plate and shell models in the description of the thermal field within metallic and composite structures is highlighted. Book's content is described at the end.
