Engineers rely upon the accuracy of prepackaged computer codes, and determining a code's validity requires an understanding of continuum mechanics and models. This self-contained text introduces classical continuum models within a modern framework. Its numerous exercises illustrate the governing principles, linearizations, and other approximations that constitute classical continuum models. 2007 edition.
