Riassunto

A thoroughly revised and updated edition of the classic text on surface mechanics, this book provides a rigorous derivation of surface properties such as temperature and deformation using continuum mechanics. The discussion is animated by the authors' decades of experience in experimental mechanics. This new edition has been updated to include many techniologically motivated problems and solutions, especially computer solutions. Intended for graduate students of mechanics and mechanical engineering, the book will also be of interest to applied mathematicians and others interested in tribology.

Recensione

From the reviews of the second edition:

"This is a very well written book. ... The authors have successfully accomplished their stated purpose of setting down concrete examples dealing with surface mechanics and of providing analytical tools relevant to quantitative study of surface mechanics. ... Fundamentals of Surface Mechanics with Applications is a valuable resource for both researchers and students in solid mechanics. It is recommended for libraries of educational institutions with a program in engineering and research institutions where research in solid mechanics is carried out." (P. Puri, Applied Mechanics Reviews, Vol. 56 (3), 2003)

"This book deals with the effects of moving thermal or mechanical loads on the surface of a continuum or the interfaces of layers of continua. ... This text ... allows the reader to gain full confidence in the techniques before turning to the problems of moving loads and to the methods using integral transforms. ... Intended for graduate students of mechanics and mechanical engineering, the book will also be of interest to applied mathematicians and other interested in tribology."
