Zusammenfassung:Continuum mechanics is the mathematical study of material behavior as well as the principles governing this behavior where the basic constituents of the material are regarded as continua rather than as molecules, atoms, or grains. From this perspective one sees that the basic constituents are assumed to possess a continuous distribution of matter and the material as a whole is composed of such elements. Principles of Continuum Mechanics deals with the behavior of materials and their qualitative and quantitative treatment by means of a continuum approach in which materials are regarded as possessing a continuous distribution of matter. The book is ideally suited for use by first- or second-year graduate students. The book is also written for the benefit of researchers in engineering mechanics, applied mathematics, atmospheric science, oceanography, and for those in the biomedical sciences
This book is devoted to the classical continuum theory of solids and fluids as well as to certain topics of modern continuum mechanics of viscoelasticity and microcontinua together with their applications to problems of practical interest. Complete mathematical derivations of most of the fundamental equations and inequalities in continuum mechanics are included, thereby freeing the reader from having to go to other sources to find these derivations. The book contains an extensive bibliography which will be most useful for students and researchers wishing to pursue problems engendered by the text. And a Solutions Manual is available upon request to the Publisher. All in all, Principles of Continuum Mechanics should reach a wide audience of scientists, engineers, and mathematicians. Its easy-to-understand style and the simple elegance of the work it presents make it a valuable addition to the literature in the field
