Accordingly, emphasis is given to concepts of permanent interest, and details of minor importance are omitted. The formulation is achieved systematically in absolute tensor notation, which is almost exclusively used in modern literature. This mathematical tool is presented such that study of the book is possible without permanent reference to other works.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e1 Mathematical fundamentals.- 2 Deformation.- 3 Stresses.- 4 Time derivative.- 5 Balance laws.- 6 Constitutive modelling.- Appendix 1.- A1.1 Index notation.- A1.2 Metric tensor and geometrical properties.- A1.3 Vector decompositions, tensor components of first order.- A1.4 Definition of higher-order tensor components.- A1.5 Permutation tensor.- A1.6 Christoffel symbols, covariant differentiation.- References.","brand":"Springer-Verlag Berlin and Heidelberg GmbH \u0026 Co.
