Can I read An Expedition to Continuum Theory (Solid Mechanics and Its Applications, 210) on EtoBox?

An Expedition to Continuum Theory (Solid Mechanics and Its Applications, 210) by Wolfgang H. Müller (auth.) is a nonfiction available to read on EtoBox.

What is An Expedition to Continuum Theory (Solid Mechanics and Its Applications, 210) about?

This book introduces field theory as required in solid and fluid mechanics as well as in electromagnetism. It includes the necessary applied mathematical framework of tensor algebra and tensor calculus, using an inductive approach particularly suited to beginners. It is geared toward undergraduate classes in continuum theory for engineers in general, and more specifically to courses in continuum mechanics. Students will gain a sound basic understanding of the subject as well as the ability to solve engineering problems by applying the general laws of nature in terms of the balances for mass, momentum, and energy in combination with material-specific relations in terms of constitutive equations, thus learning how to use the theory in practice for themselves. This is facilitated by numerous examples and problems provided throughout the text.

Who reads An Expedition to Continuum Theory (Solid Mechanics and Its Applications, 210)?

It is typically read by self-directed learners exploring a subject in depth.

Common subject areas: history, science, philosophy, social sciences.
