Summary
"The purpose of this textbook is to give a modern and unified approach to continuum mechanics and thermodynamics in a rigorous mathematical framework. The intended audience are students, researchers and engineers interested in these fields or in mathematical modelling and numerical simulation in solid and fluid mechanics, acoustics, heat transfer, chemistry, or combustion."--Jacket
