Nonlinear Effects in Fluids and Solids

Edición de la obra Nonlinear Effects in Fluids and Solids

This volume honors the accomplishments of Ronald S. Rivlin, whose pioneering theoretical and experimental research in finite elasticity is a landmark. Contributions to this important reference reflect the depth and breadth of Rivlin's research interest and his influence on continuum mechanics. Topics include nonlinear elasticity, viscoelasticity, plasticity, thermodynamics, non-Newtonian flow, liquid crystals, two-phase structures, membranes, mechanics of ice, electroelastic and magnetoelastic waves, fracture, and stability.
