Theoretical Elasticity
This classic treatise provides a rigorous mathematical foundation for the theory of elasticity, focusing on the deformation of solid bodies under various physical conditions. The authors utilize tensor analysis as a primary tool to develop both finite and classical infinitesimal theories of elasticity. Key topics include the derivation of fundamental equations of equilibrium, complex variable methods for two-dimensional problems, the theory of shells and plates, and the analysis of elastic stability. Renowned for its mathematical precision, the book explores non-linear elasticity and the behavior of both isotropic and aeolotropic (anisotropic) materials. It remains an essential reference for mathematicians, physicists, and research engineers specializing in continuum mechanics and structural analysis.
