DESCRIPTION:
A theoretician said Excellent combination of text book and research inspiration. This book not only contains the fundamentals of continuum mechanics, plasticity, and viscoelasticity for the purpose of a text book but also sheds light on state-of the-artresearch areas, for example, modelling polymeric materials, studying biological tissues and soft materials. I reco
The author has done an admirable job of pointing out how the text would satisfy these competing requirements."Ronald E. {presented figures are particularly helpful in understanding the mechanisms in a simple (one-dimensional) setting … The learning features included in this chapter are excellent (the figures are clear and illustrative). "an excellent text for a graduate-level course in plasticity…the approach and selection of topics areappropriate for the audience. The chapters are written to be somewhat self-contained. …. Smelser, The University of North Carolina at Charlotte, USA . can be adapted to satisfy a variety of courses and subjects. The simple thermo-mechanical analog presented at the beginning of the chapter is also very instructive to the reader. Professor Negahban

Covering a wide range of foundational subjects and presenting unique insights into the unification of disparate theories and practices, this book offers an extensive number of problems, figures, and examples to help the reader grasp the subject from many levels. This approach makes it accessible and applicable for a varied audience, including students and experts from engineering mechanics, mechanical engineering, civil engineering, and materials science.. Suitable for student readers and experts alike, it offers a clear and comprehensive presentation of multi-dimensional continuum thermodynamics to both aid in initial understanding and introduce and explore advanced topics. Starting from one-dimensional axial motion in bars, the book builds a clear understanding of mechanics and continuum thermodynamics during plastic flow. Born out of 15 years of courses and lectures on continuum mechanics, nonlinear mechanics, continuum thermodynamics, viscoelasticity, plasticity, crystal plasticity, and thermodynamic plasticity, The Mechanical and Thermo
