Nonlinear Solid Mechanics - Bigoni, Davide (Professor of Solid and Structural Mechanics, Universita degli Studi di Trento, Italy)

For researchers and graduate students, this book addresses the complex modelling of materials behaviour under extreme mechanical conditions and of failure in terms of non-linear continuum mechanics and instability theory. The theoretical framework presented helps us understand failure conditions, crucial for exploitation of traditional materials and design of innovative materials.
