Continuum Mechanics of Anisotropic Materials [electronic resource] / by Stephen C. Cowin.

By: Cowin, Stephen C [author.].
Contributor(s): SpringerLink (Online service).
Material type: materialTypeLabelBookPublisher: New York, NY : Springer New York : Imprint: Springer, 2013Description: XIII, 425 p. online resource.Content type: text Media type: computer Carrier type: online resourceISBN: 9781461450252.Subject(s): Engineering | Continuum physics | Mechanics | Biophysics | Biological physics | Biomedical engineering | Biomaterials | Engineering | Biomedical Engineering | Biophysics and Biological Physics | Mechanics | Biomaterials | Classical Continuum PhysicsAdditional physical formats: Printed edition:: No titleDDC classification: 610.28 Online resources: Click here to access online
Contents:
Introduction -- Mechanical Modeling of Materials -- Basic Continuum Kinetmatics -- Continuum Formulations of Conservation Laws -- Formulation of Constitutive Equations -- Modeling Material Symmetry -- Four Linear Continuum Theories -- Modelling Material Microstructure -- Poroelasticity -- Mixture Theory -- Kinematics and Mechanics of Large Deformations -- Plasticity Theory -- Appendix.-.
In: Springer eBooksSummary: Continuum Mechanics of Anisotropic Materials(CMAM) presents an entirely new and unique development of material anisotropy in the context of an appropriate selection and organization of continuum mechanics topics. These features will distinguish this continuum mechanics book from other books on this subject. Textbooks on continuum mechanics are widely employed in engineering education, however, none of them deal specifically with anisotropy in materials. For the audience of Biomedical, Chemical and Civil Engineering students, these materials will be dealt with more frequently and greater accuracy in their analysis will be desired. Continuum Mechanics of Anisotropic Materials' author has been a leader in the field of developing new approaches for the understanding of anisotropic materials.
