Product Description
Assuming only a fundamental understanding of Newtonian mechanics, this second edition textbook by B. Lautrup offers a unified and thorough introduction to continuum mechanics from a modern viewpoint. Published by CRC Press in hardcover, the book is richly illustrated with 135 black-and-white figures and supported by seven detailed tables, spanning 696 pages of insightful content.
The text covers a broad range of advanced topics including local thermodynamic equilibrium, turbulence models, basic magnetohydrodynamics, tsunamis, and explosions. Designed for advanced undergraduates and graduate students, this volume bridges theoretical concepts with practical applications, offering a comprehensive resource for physicists, engineers, and applied mathematicians.
By integrating classical theory with contemporary research and real-world phenomena, Lautrup’s work ensures readers gain a solid foundation in both the principles and latest developments within continuum mechanics.
