Book Description
Continuum Models for Phase Transitions and Twinning in Crystals presents the fundamentals of a remarkably successful approach to crystal thermomechanics developed over the last two decades. The author takes an in-depth look at continuum theory for the equilibrium of crystalline substances by means of energy methods. He discusses the roles of geometry, kinematics, and energy invariance in crystals during the investigation of the actual mechanics of this phenomenon and presents the first organized nonlinear elastic approach to twinning and displacive phase transitions in crystalline solids.
