This book provides a systematic and self-consistent introduction to
the nonlinear continuum mechanics of solids, from the main axioms
to comprehensive aspects of the theory. The objective is to expose
the most intriguing aspects of elasticity and viscoelasticity with
finite strains in such a way as to ensure mathematical correctness,
on the one hand, and to demonstrate a wide spectrum of physical
phenomena typical only of nonlinear mechanics, on the other.A novel
aspect of the book is that it contains a number of examples
illustrating surprising behaviour in materials with finite strains,
as well as comparisons between theoretical predictions and
experimental data for rubber-like polymers and elastomers.The book
aims to fill a gap between mathematicians specializing in nonlinear
continuum mechanics, and physicists and engineers who apply the
methods of solid mechanics to a wide range of problems in civil and
mechanical engineering, materials science, and polymer physics. The
book has been developed from a graduate course in applied
mathematics which the author has given for a number of years.
