Mechanics of Solids and Materials
Description
Mechanics of Solids and Materials intends to provide a modern and integrated treatment of the foundations of solid mechanics as applied to the mathematical description of material behavior. The book blends both innovative topics (e.g., large strain, strain rate, temperature, time-dependent deformation and localized plastic deformation in crystalline solids, and deformation of biological networks) and traditional topics (e.g.,elastic theory of torsion, elastic beam and plate theories, and contact mechanics) in a coherent theoretical framework. This, and the extensive use of transform methods to generate solutions, makes the book of interest to structural, mechanical, materials, and aerospace engineers. Plasticity theories, micromechanics, crystal plasticity, thin films, energetics of elastic systems, and an overall review of continuum mechanics and thermodynamics are also covered in the book.
