About this ebook

Mechanics Today, Volume 2 consists of four articles considering applied mechanics. Each article starts with a discussion of fundamentals and continues with a presentation of analytical and experimental results. Topics discussed in the first three articles include theory of creep and shrinkage in concrete structures; nonequilibrium thermodynamics of continua; and mathematical aspects of finite-element approximations in continuum mechanics. The last article shows the utilization of exact simple wave solutions for the construction of uniform approximations for waves in nonlinear dissipative or bounded media. This book is useful to specialists and accessible to non-experts but with sufficient background of the subject matter.
