Deformation and Fracture of Solid-State Materials Field Theoretical Approach and Engineering Applications

This book introduces a comprehensive theory of deformation and fracture to engineers and applied scientists. The author explains the gist of local symmetry (gauge invariance) intuitively so that engineers and applied physicists can digest it easily, rather than describing physical or mathematical de...
