    Why don't you give exact delivery time?

    Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

    Short description:

    A graduate-level text on Finite Elasticity, suitable for graduate students, post-doctoral associates and researchers. Introduces the reader to the basic elements of this central topic, which serves as a template for a host of theories in Solid Mechanics.

    Long description:

    Containing case studies and examples, the book aims to cover extensive research particularly on surface stress and topics related to the variational approach to the subject, and non-standard topics such as the rigorous treatment of constraints and a full discussion of algebraic inequalities associated with realistic material behaviour, and their implications.

    Serving as an introduction to the basic elements of Finite Elasticity, this textbook is the cornerstone for any graduate-level on the topic, while also providing a template for a host of theories in Solid Mechanics.

    There are many textbooks and treatises on finite elasticity, but Finite Elasticity Theory by David J. Steigmann is special. First, it is at the same time concise and deep, without any dogmatism. Second, it achieves the difficult balance between scientific rigor and clear presentation. Moreover, and probably the most important aspect of this book, there is a subtle interplay between mathematical and physical rigor, two aspects that are rarely seen together in such works.
