Overview

Intended for a first course in continuum mechanics and constitutive modelling at the senior undergraduate and the introductory graduate level, the focus of this book is on a unified mechanistic approach that uses energy concepts for modelling a large range of engineering material behaviour. In the presentation 1D-think models lead to the development of various fundamentals of continuum mechanics, such as deformation and strain, momentum balance, stress and stress states, thermoelasticity and elasticity bounds, plasticity and yield design. Along these lines, the bases for a common language among core disciplines in engineering sciences are developed, in a mathematical, yet eloquent manner.
