Tensor Analysis and Continuum Mechanics /

This volume combines an illustration of the theory of tensors and the foundations of continuum mechanics. This work lays the groundwork for more technical subjects as strength of materials, plasticity, viscoelasticity, and nonlinear continuum mechanics. The material is presented with great pedagogic...
