Download or read book Continuum Mechanics and Theory of Materials written by Peter Haupt and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2002-03-12 with total page 670 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 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.
