Foundations and Applications of Mechanics: Volume I: Continuum Mechanics

This book in its entirety (both volumes) is intended to give a mathematical introduction (at the graduate level) to the axioms and laws of deformable body mechanics, and its various applications such as in the fields of solid and fluid mechanics. This textbook aims to present a comprehensive view of the whole subject starting from the elements of tensor analysis, which is the mathematical underpinning of this subject, then moving on to a detailed derivation of the governing equations, and t...
