The Mechanics and Thermodynamics of Continua / Morton E. Gurtin, Eliot Fried, Lallit Anand

By: Contributor(s): Publication details: New York : Cambridge University Press, ©2013.Description: xxi, 694pISBN:
  • 9781107617063
Subject(s): DDC classification:
  • 531 GurM
Summary: The mechanics and Thermodynamics of continua presents a unified treatment of continuum mechanics and Thermodynamics that emphasises the universal status of the basic balances and the entropy imbalance. These laws are viewed as fundamental building blocks on which to frame theories of material behavior. As a valuable reference source, this book presents a detailed and complete treatment of continuum mechanics and Thermodynamics for graduates and Advanced undergraduates in Engineering, Physics, and Mathematics. The chapters on plasticity discuss the standard isotropic theories and, in addition, crystal plasticity and gradient plasticity.
