Temam and Miranville present core topics within the general themes of fluid and solid mechanics. The brisk style allows the text to cover a wide range of topics including viscous flow, magnetohydrodynamics, atmospheric flows, shock equations, turbulence, nonlinear solid mechanics, solitons, and the nonlinear Schrodinger equation. This second edition will be a unique resource for those studying continuum mechanics at the advanced undergraduate and beginning graduate level whether in engineering, mathematics, physics or the applied sciences. Exercises and hints for solutions have been added to...

Ce recueil est la "bible" pour preparer sereinement l'epreuve de modelisation a l'agregation de mathematiques. Les auteurs sont soit des chercheurs de premier plan largement reconnus dans leur domaine, soit des membres du jury du Concours. Tous les domaines de la modelisation mathematique sont ainsi presents: algorithmique, fiabilite, biomathematiques, biochimie, dynamique des populations, percolation, ondes, GPS, trafic routier, telecommunications, finance, mecanique des milieux continus. - Un indispensable.
