Mathematical Foundations of Elasticity

Mathematical Foundations of ElasticityThis advanced level study approaches mathematical foundations of three dimensional elasticity using modern differential geometry and functional analysis. It is directed to mathematicians, engineers and physicists who wish to see this classical subject in a modern setting with examples of newer mathematical contributions. Prerequisites include a solid background in advanced calculus and the basics of geometry and functional analysis. The first two
