Thermodynamics of Materials with Memory
Springer 2011; US$ 99.99This is a work in four parts, dealing with the mechanics and thermodynamics of materials with memory, including properties of the dynamical equations which describe their evolution in time under varying loads. The first part is an introduction to Continuum Mechanics with sections dealing with classical Fluid Mechanics and Elasticity, linear and non-linear.... more...
The Rational Spirit in Modern Continuum Mechanics
Springer 2004; US$ 209.00Through his voluminous and influential writings, editorial activities, organizational leadership, intellectual acumen, and strong sense of history, Clifford A. Truesdell (1919-2000) was the main architect for the renaissance of rational continuum mechanics since the middle of the 20th century. This collection of 42 essays and research papers pays tribute... more...
Continuum Theory
Marcel Dekker Inc 2002; US$ 239.95Celebrating the work of mathematician Sam B. Nadler, this text examines advances in the analysis of compact connected metric spaces. It presents studies in hyperspaces, fixed point and mapping properties, embeddings, homogeneity and dynamic systems. more...
Mathematical Modeling in Continuum Mechanics
Cambridge University Press 2005; US$ 60.00Temam 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 Schrödinger equation. more...
Mathematical Methods in Electro-magneto-elasticity
Springer-Verlag Berlin and Heidelberg GmbH & Co. KG 2007; US$ 189.99The mechanics of Coupled Fields is a discipline at the edge of modern research connecting Continuum Mechanics with Solid State Physics. It integrates the Mechanics of Continuous Media, Heat Conductivity and the theory of Electromagnetism that are usually studied separately. For an accurate description of the influence of static and dynamic loadings,... more...
Hydrodynamics of Explosion
Springer-Verlag Berlin and Heidelberg GmbH & Co. KG 2006; US$ 189.99Hydronamics of Explosion presents the research results for the problems of underwater explosions and contains a detailed analysis of the structure and the parameters of the wave fields generated by explosions of cord and spiral charges, a description of the formation mechanisms for a wide range of cumulative flows at underwater explosions near the... more...
Vibrations and Waves in Continuous Mechanical Systems
Wiley 2007; US$ 105.00The subject of vibrations is of fundamental importance in engineering and technology. Discrete modelling is sufficient to understand the dynamics of many vibrating systems; however a large number of vibration phenomena are far more easily understood when modelled as continuous systems. The theory of vibrations in continuous systems is crucial to the... more...
