Scaling Limits in Statistical Mechanics and Microstructures in Continuum Mechanics
Springer 2008; US$ 84.99Collective behavior in systems with many components, blow-ups with emergence of microstructures are proofs of the double, continuum and atomistic, nature of macroscopic systems, an issue which has always intrigued scientists and philosophers. Modern technologies have made the question more actual and concrete with recent, remarkable progresses also... more...
Mechanistic Images in Geometric Form
Oxford University Press, UK 2005; US$ 259.99This book presents an analysis of Heinrich Hertz's posthumously published 'Principles of Mechanics' in its philosophical, physical and mathematical context. It is the first book to comprehensively examine Hertz's important ideas on mechanics and the author draws on the original manuscripts to reveal the creative process of Hertz throughout... more...
Mechanical Systems, Classical Models
Springer 2008; US$ 179.99Deals with the dynamics of systems consisting of discrete particles as well as continuous systems. This book explains various important aspects of the science of mechanics, regarded as a natural science, and shows how they are useful in understanding important natural phenomena and solving problems of applied/engineering interest. more...
Variational Methods in Nonconservative Phenomena
Elsevier Science 1989; US$ 285.00This book provides a comprehensive survey of analytic and approximate solutions of problems of applied mechanics, with particular emphasis on nonconservative phenomena. Include more...
Introduction to Continuum Mechanics
Cambridge University Press 2009; US$ 30.00Treats solids and fluids in a balanced manner, using thermodynamic restrictions on the relation between applied forces and material responses. more...
Analytical Mechanics
Oxford University Press, UK 2006; US$ 109.99Is the solar system stable? Is there a unifying 'economy' principle in mechanics? How can a pointmass be described as a 'wave'? This book offers students an understanding of the most relevant and far reaching results of the theory of Analytical Mechanics, including plenty of examples, exercises, and solved problems. - ;Analytical Mechanics... more...
Continuum Mechanics and Thermodynamics

The Mechanics and Thermodynamics of Continua
Cambridge University Press 2010; US$ 111.00A discussion of continuum mechanics which uniquely includes thermodynamics for engineering graduate students. more...
Principles of Continuum Mechanics
Cambridge University Press 2010; US$ 84.00This textbook presents the mechanics of materials, fluids, and heat transfer using the conservation principles of mechanics. more...
Continuum Mechanics
Springer 2010; US$ 124.00This book offers a broad overview of the potential of continuum mechanics to describe a wide range of macroscopic phenomena in real-world problems. Building on the fundamentals presented in the authors' previous book, Continuum Mechanics using Mathematica(R), this new work explores interesting models of continuum mechanics, with an emphasis on... more...
