Abstract:

The scope of the series covers the entire spectrum of solid mechanics. Thus it includes the foundation of mechanics variational formulations computational mechanics statics, kinematics and dynamics of rigid and elastic bodies vibrations of solids and structures dynamical systems and chaos the theories of elasticity, plasticity and viscoelasticity, composite materials rods, beams, shells and membranes structural control and stability soils, rocks and geomechanics fracture tribology experimental mechanics biomechanics and machine design.
