This volume presents recent developments in the theory of defects and the mechanics of material forces. Most of the contributions were presented at the Internat

A novel and unified presentation of the elements of mechanics in material space or configurational mechanics, with applications to fracture and defect mechanics

This book stems from a course on Micromechanics that I started about fifteen years ago at Northwestern University. At that time, micromechanics was a rather unf

Elements of Structures and Defects of Crystalline Materials has been written to cover not only the fundamental principles behind structures and defects, but als

Uncertainty Quantification of Stochastic Defects in Materials investigates the uncertainty quantification methods for stochastic defects in material microstruct
