12.005 Applications of Continuum Mechanics to Earth, Atmospheric, and Planetary Sciences, Spring 2005

Practical applications of the continuum concept for deformation of solids and fluids, emphasizing force balance. Stress tensor, infinitesimal and finite strain, and rotation tensors developed. Constitutive relations applicable to geological materials, including elastic, viscous, brittle, and plastic...
