Issued without a dust jacket. -- This book presents a unified and foundational treatment of continuum mechanics and thermodynamics, exploring the fundamental concepts and mathematical structures that govern the macroscopic behavior of materials under mechanical and thermal loading. Beginning with the rigorous definitions of scalars, vectors, and tensors, it develops the kinematics of finite deformation, elucidating concepts such as deformation gradients, strain measures, and kinematic rates. The text then establishes the balance laws of mechanics (conservation of mass, linear and angular momentum) and thermodynamics (first and second laws), deriving the local forms of the energy equation and the Clausius-Duhem inequality. A central focus is the constitutive theory, where constraints imposed by the second law, material frame-indifference, and material symmetry are systematically applied to restrict the forms of constitutive relations, culminating in discussions of hyperelasticity, generalized Hooke's law, and nonlinear material models. Variational principles, notably the principle of stationary potential energy (PSPE) and principle of minimum potential energy (PMPE), are introduced to characterize equilibrium states and stability. The second part of the book shifts from theory to solutions, first exploring universal equilibrium solutions applicable to all materials within certain classes, then detailing the finite element method (FEM) as a numerical approach to solving nonlinear boundary-value problems through energy minimization. The text concludes by demonstrating how linearization of kinematics and constitutive relations reduces the general theory to classical engineering disciplines like heat transfer, fluid mechanics, and elasticity. Bridging abstract mathematical formalism with practical problem-solving, this work provides a self-contained graduate-level introduction to the nonlinear thermomechanics of solids.…

Hardback. Condizione: New. Continuum mechanics and thermodynamics are foundational theories of many fields of science and engineering. This book presents a fresh perspective on these fundamental topics, connecting micro- and nanoscopic theories and emphasizing topics relevant to understanding solid-state thermo-mechanical behavior. Providing clear, in-depth coverage, the book gives a self-contained treatment of topics directly related to nonlinear materials modeling. It starts with vectors and tensors, finite deformation kinematics, the fundamental balance and conservation laws, and classical thermodynamics. It then discusses the principles of constitutive theory and examples of constitutive models, presents a foundational treatment of energy principles and stability theory, and concludes with example closed-form solutions and the essentials of finite elements. Together with its companion book, Modeling Materials, (Cambridge University Press, 2011), this work presents the fundamentals of multiscale materials modeling for graduate students and researchers in physics, materials science, chemistry and engineering.…
