Description:
This monograph provides a systematic treatment of differential geometry in modeling of incompatible fiite deformations in solids. Included are discussions of generalized deformations and stress measures on smooth manifolds, geometrical formalizations for structurally inhomogeneous bodies, representations for configurational forces, and evolution equations.
