This book includes basic algebraic and analytic topics related to continuum mechanics, i.e. tensors in linear spaces or in spaces with quadratic metrics, affine spaces, Euclidean spaces, covariant differentiation, associated integral theorems and invariant theory. The mechanical aspects concern kinematics and deformation theory, dynamics and stress theory, and thermodynamics. The authors present material in a systematic form, including definitions, axioms, theorems, corollaries and examples. This viewpoint allows to examine different models of continua (elasticity, thermoelasticity, viscoelasticity, viscous fluids, acoustics) in a unified way. Containing a concentrated and concisely presented material, the modern book can be useful not only to students but also to experts in the field.
