Theoretical, Experimental, and Numerical Contributions to the Mechanics of Fluids and Solids A collection of papers in honor of Paul M. Naghdi

This special issue of ZAMP is published to honor Paul M. Naghdi for his contributions to mechanics over the last forty years and more. It is offered in celebration of his long, productive career in continuum mechan­ ics; a career which has been marked by a passion for the intrinsic beauty of the sub...
