This title proposes a unified approach to continuum mechanics which is consistent with Galilean relativity. Based on the notion of affine tensors, a simple gene

The notion of continuum thermodynamics, adopted in this book, is primarily understood as a strategy for development of continuous models of various physical sys

This mathematically-oriented introduction takes the point of view that students should become familiar, at an early stage, with the physics of relativistic cont
