This book concisely covers three-dimensional elasticity, reflecting the need for more sophisticated methods of elastic analysis than are usually taught at the undergraduate level. The subject is presented at the level of sophistication for engineers with mathematical knowledge and those familiar with matrices. Relatively inaccessible material with important applications receives special attention, such as Russian work on anisotropic materials, the technique of thermal imaging of strain, and an analysis of the San Andreas fault. Tensor equations are given in straightforward notation to provide a physical grounding and assist comprehension, and there are useful tables for the solution of problems.Renton, John D. is the author of 'Applied Elasticity Matrix and Tensor Analysis of Elastic Continua' with ISBN 9781898563853 and ISBN 1898563853.
