Mini Course
Constitutive theory and finite elasticity
Prof. I-Shih Liu
(Institute of Mathematics, Federal University of Rio de Janeiro)
The purpose of this mini-course is to discuss basic notions of finite deformation and basic principles of constitutive theories in Continuum Mechanics. Four lectures each lasting two hours will be conducted. They will consist of the following topics:
Lecture 1.Notations and tensor algebra.
Lecture 2.Kinematics of finite deformation.
Lecture 3.Balance laws of mass, momentum and energy.
Lecture 4.Constitutive theory and equation of finite elasticity.
Lecture notes for each class will be distributed at the beginning of each lecture.
