An emphasis is placed on increasing the generality and elegance of the theory by scrutinizing the relationship between the physical aspects and the mathematical notions used in its formulation. The theory of uniform fluxes in affine spaces is covered first, followed by the smooth theory on differentiable manifolds, and ends with the non-smooth global theory. Because continuum mechanics provides the theoretical foundations for disciplines like fluid dynamics and stress analysis, the authors extension of the theory will enable researchers to better describe the mechanics of modern materials and biological tissues. The global approach to continuum mechanics also enables the formulation and solutions of practical optimization problems. Foundations of Geometric Continuum Mechanics will be an invaluable resource for researchers in the area, particularly mathematicians, physicists, and engineers interested in the foundational notions of continuum mechanics. 001482794 588__ $$aDescription based on print version record. 001482794 650_0 $$aContinuum mechanics$$xMathematics. 001482794 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 001482794 77608 $$iPrint version: $$z3031356543$$z9783031356544$$w(OCoLC)1380386063 001482794 830_0 $$aAdvances in mechanics and mathematics ;$$vv.49. 001482794 852__ $$bebk 001482794 85640 $$3Springer Nature$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-031-35655-1$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 001482794 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1482794$$pGLOBAL_SET 001482794 980__ $$aBIB 001482794 980__ $$aEBOOK 001482794 982__ $$aEbook 001482794 983__ $$aOnline 001482794 994__ $$a92$$bISE
