Free Download Configurational Forces as Basic Concepts of Continuum Physics by Morton E. Gurtin
English | PDF | 2000 | 248 Pages | ISBN : 0387986677 | 3.1 MB
For the last decade, the author has been working to extend continuum mechanics to treat moving boundaries in materials focusing, in particular, on problems of metallurgy. This monograph presents a rational treatment of the notion of configurational forces; it is an effort to promote a new viewpoint. Included is a presentation of configurational forces within a classical context and a discussion of their use in areas as diverse as phase transitions and fracture. The work should be of interest to materials scientists, mechanicians, and mathematicians.
