The IUTAM Symposium on Rheology of Bodies with Defects was held in
Beijing in September, 1997. It was aimed at the development of
Rheology in Solid Mechanics. Rheology is classified in Applied
Mechanics Review under fluid mechanics, however, in its broadest
content as was envisaged in its earlier days, it covers the whole
spectrum of material behavior from elasticity, plasticity, and
fluid mechanics to gas dynamics. It was thought of as a branch of
continuum mechanics, but emphasized the physical aspects of
different materials, and frequently proceeded from basic physical
principles. As the temperature rises, the distinction between solid
and fluid, and the distinction between their micro-mechanical
movements, become blurred. The physical description of such
materials and their movements must be based on the thermodynamic
principles of state variable theory; the classical division between
solid and fluid mechanics disappears. Under the classification
adopted by Applied Mechanics Reviews, the subjects dealt with in
this symposium come closer to viscoelasticity and viscoplasticity,
especially close to the subdivision of creep dealing with creep
rupture. The symposium focused at building a bridge between
macroscopic and microscopic research on damage and fracture
behavior of defective bodies made of metal, polymer, composite and
other viscoelastic materials. Two different approaches are
presented at the symposium. The first is a continuum damage theory
for time-dependent evolution of defects at the
macro/meso/microscopic levels.
