Considers most types of materials; metals, ceramics, fibered composites, concrete, biological tissue, rubber, polymers and wood.
Focuses on relationships between material properties of a deformable body and the forces and displacements applied to its boundary.
Provides reader with the ability to develop an appreciation for the approximations made in producing the mathematical models intended to predict mechanical response.
Historical background indicates why definitions were made and that real people invented the models for practical purposes.
