The chapters collected in this volume showcase the many areas of continuum mechanics that grew out of the foundational work of the Cosserat brothers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe included contributions provide a detailed survey of the most recent theoretical developments in the field of generalized continuum mechanics. The diverse topics covered include: the properties of Cosserat media, micromorphic bodies, micropolar solids and fluids, weakly- and strongly-nonlocal theories, gradient theories of elasticity and plasticity, defect theory, everywhere-defective materials, bodies with fractal structure, as well as other related topics.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eMechanics of Generalized Continua\u003c\/em\u003e can serve as a useful reference for graduate students and researchers in mechanical engineering, materials science, applied physics and applied mathematics.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2010-03-24\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Hardcover\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9781441956941\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-1-4419-5695-8\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 235cm x155cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 337\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer New York","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45378458091660,"sku":"9781441956941","price":152.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9781441956941.jpg?v=1775681212","url":"https:\/\/lateknightbooks.com\/products\/9781441956941","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
