Advance praise: 'A gutsy attempt at a simplified yet insightful treatment of continuum mechanics, Principles of Continuum Mechanics 2nd Edition offers a rare opportunity for the uninitiated audience, including students at the undergraduate level, to learn the essence of the philosophy and the working of the continuum theory of solids and fluids. It has substantive appeal, not just for the beginner, but also for those intending to make use of basic continuum mechanics for industrial or research purposes of an interdisciplinary nature.'

Table Of Content
1. Introduction; 2. Vectors and tensors; 3. Kinematics of a continuum; 4. Stress vector and stress tensor; 5. Conservation of mass and balance of momenta and energy; 6. Constitute equations; 7. Applications in heat transfer, fluid mechanics, and solid mechanics.
Synopsis
This book provides a concise treatment of the subject of continuum mechanics and elasticity at the senior undergraduate and first-year graduate levels. The examples and exercise problems contained in the book systematically advance the understanding of vector and tensor analysis, basic kinematics, balance laws, field equations, and constitutive equations., Continuum mechanics deals with the stress, deformation, and mechanical behaviour of matter as a continuum rather than a collection of discrete particles. The subject is interdisciplinary in nature, and has gained increased attention in recent times primarily because of a need to understand a variety of phenomena at different spatial scales. The second edition of Principles of Continuum Mechanics provides a concise yet rigorous treatment of the subject of continuum mechanics and elasticity at the senior undergraduate and first-year graduate levels. It prepares engineer-scientists for advanced courses in traditional as well as emerging fields such as biotechnology, nanotechnology, energy systems, and computational mechanics. The large number of examples and exercise problems contained in the book systematically advance the understanding of vector and tensor analysis, basic kinematics, balance laws, field equations, constitutive equations, and applications. A solutions manual is available for the book.
