Continuum Mechanics and Theory of Materials


Add your own review!

Overview

The new edition includes additional analytical methods in the classical theory of viscoelasticity. This leads to a new theory of finite linear viscoelasticity of incompressible isotropic materials. Anisotropic viscoplasticity is completely reformulated and extended to a general constitutive theory that covers crystal plasticity as a special case.

Reviews

The author, a well-known expert in the field, contributed important suggestions on endochronic models, finite viscoelasticity, plasticity, polymer mechanics, and many other topics. He certainly has a broad overview over current problems and issues in material theory. At the same time, Haupt is a talented and experienced teacher, giving clear and comprehensive introductions into such complex theories as plasticity and viscoplasticity, both still far from being well-established textbook knowledge. The outcome is a careful introduction into material theory, and a detailed presentation of numerous different suggestions of some novelty. The book is therefore recommendable not only for students with some background in tensor calculus and continuum mechanics, but also for advanced researchers and engineers in the field, who will surely find fruitful stimulations when reading this rich source of material theory. (Zentralblatt Mathematik, 2000) In striving toward the encyclopedic, Haupt employs a full arsenal of geometric tools, from curvilinear coordinates to several different strain tensors for both the spatial and material formulations. The emphasis throughout is on the mechanics of solids. (SIAM Review, 44/1, 2002)
