This best-selling textbook presents the concepts of continuum mechanics, and the second edition includes additional explanations, examples and exercises.
This is then followed by the formulation of the kinematics of deformation, large as well as very small, the description of stresses and the basic laws of continuum mechanics.
A wide range of idealized materials are considered through simple static and dynamic problems, and the book contains an abundance of illustrative examples of problems, many with solutions.

The book contains many examples and exercises, and is intended for scientists, practitioners and students of mechanics. This book presents an introduction into the entire science of Continuum Mechanics in three parts.
This revised text provides a clear introduction to modern continuum mechanics aimed at beginners in the field. The concept of tensors is introduced through the idea of linear transformation. The...
An Introduction To Continuum Mechanics
This book provides a brief introduction to rational continuum mechanics in a form suitable for students of engineering, mathematics and science.
This book presents an introduction to the classical theories of continuum mechanics; in particular, to the theories of ideal, compressible, and viscous fluids, and to the linear and nonlinear theories of elasticity.
This textbook reflects the modern view that scientists and engineers work in multidisciplinary environments.
Undergraduate text offers an analysis of deformation and stress, covers laws of conservation of mass, momentum, and energy, and surveys the formulation of mechanical constitutive equations. 1992 edition.
