Providing a modern and comprehensive coverage of continuum mechanics, this volume includes information on "variational principles"--Significant, as this is the

This book offers a recipe for constructing the numerical models for representing the complex nonlinear behavior of structures and their components, represented

Addresses behaviour of materials under extreme mechanical conditions and of failure in terms of non-linear continuum mechanics and instability theory.

In mechanical engineering and structural analysis there is a significant gap between the material models currently used by engineers for industry applications a

The aim of the book is the presentation of the fundamental mathematical and physical concepts of continuum mechanics of solids in a unified description so as to
