Opis

This book develops continuum modeling skills and approaches the topic from three sides: (1) derivation of global integral laws together with the associated local differential equations, (2) design of constitutive laws and (3) modeling boundary processes.

Recenzje

"The book is quite short and contains subjects that usually are more exotic and/or advanced with respect to the basic topics of a continuum mechanics course. ... I have enjoyed reading this short book and I think it gives a fresh look into the standard topics of a continuum mechanics course at a level ... . I think this book is a nice addition in a field where a long list of textbooks is available." (Giuseppe Saccomandi, Mathematical Reviews, March, 2016)
