GLADWELL Department of Civil Engineering University of Waterloo Waterloo, Ontario, Canada N2L 3GI Aims and Scope of the Series The fundamental questions arising in mechanics are: Why?, How?, and How much? The aim of this series is to provide lucid accounts written by authoritative researchers giving vision and insight in answering these questions on the subject of mechanics as it relates to solids. The scope of the series covers the entire spectrum of solid mechanics. Thus it includes the foundation of mechanics; variational formulations; computational mechanics; statics, kinematics and dynamics of rigid and. | Mechatronics SOLID MECHANICS AND ITS APPLICATIONS Volume 136 Series Editor .

The median level of presentation is the first year graduate student. Some texts are monographs defining the current state of the field others are accessible to final year undergraduates but essentially the emphasis is on readability and clarity.
