CONTINUUM MECHANICS


with emphasis on metals & viscoelastic materials


DESCRIPTION




This website presents the principles of finite deformation continuum mechanics
with many example applications to metals and incompressible viscoelastic
materials (rubber). It can serve as lecture notes for a graduate level course in
continuum mechanics for engineers interested in the subject.




FRACTURE MECHANICS WEBSITE


Visit www.fracturemechanics.org, my new fracture mechanics website, It is under
development, but will eventually contain information on linear and nonlinear
fracture mechanics, as well as fatigue crack growth.

FRACTURE MECHANICS WEBSITE

Visit my sister website, www.fracturemechanics.org, for information on fracture
mechanics. It is under development, but will eventually contain information on
linear and nonlinear fracture mechanics, as well as fatigue crack growth.




A NOTE ABOUT THE WEB TECHNOLOGIES USED HERE

Two relatively new web technologies are used on these pages. The first is
Scalable Vector Graphics, or SVG. Pages on this site will display SVG files in
compatible browsers, and PNG files in incompatible ones. The advantage of SVG
over PNG is that SVG graphics can be scaled to any size without the onset of
pixelization. SVG files used here were created using Inkscape, an excellent
graphics program available free on the internet here.

The second new technology used here is MathJax, a Javascript based display
engine for mathematical equations programmed in the LaTeX language. MathJax
eliminates the need to display equations as GIF or PNG graphics files (or even
SVG for that matter). MathJax requires only the following line of code in the
<HEAD> segment of a webpage.

<script type="text/javascript"
src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/mathjax/2.7.5/latest.js?config=TeX-MML-AM_CHTML"></script>

It is then possible to program any math expression in the HTML source using the
LaTeX language. For example, typing \(\sigma_{ij}\) produces σijσij.

I'm often asked what software I used to develop the webpages. The answer is...
the Vim editor (www.vim.org). Vim is the Windows-based version of the venerable
Vi editor on Unix, and now Linux systems. I typed everything by hand.
