The subject of Elasticity can be approached from several points of
view, - pending on whether the practitioner is principally
interested in the mat- matical structure of the subject or in its
use in engineering applications and, in the latter case, whether
essentially numerical or analytical methods are envisaged as the
solution method. My ?rst introduction to the subject was in
response to a need for information about a speci?c problem in
Tribology. As a practising Engineer with a background only in
elementary Mechanics of - terials, I approached that problem
initially using the concepts of concentrated forces and
superposition. Today, with a rather more extensive knowledge of
analytical techniques in Elasticity, I still ?nd it helpful to go
back to these roots in the elementary theory and think through a
problem physically as well as mathematically, whenever some new and
unexpected feature presents di?culties in research. This way of
thinking will be found to permeate this book. My engineering
background will also reveal itself in a tendency to work examples
through to ?nal expressions for stresses and displacements, rather
than leave the derivation at a point where the remaining
manipulations would be mathematically routine. The ?rst edition of
this book, published in 1992, was based on a one semester graduate
course on Linear Elasticity that I have taught at the U- versity of
Michigan since 1983.
