Foundations of Stress Waves (Hardcover)

The primary objective of this work is to give the reader an understanding of stress wave behaviour while taking into account the dynamic constitutive equations of elastic-plastic solids. The author has combined a 'materials characteristics' approach with a 'singularity surface' approach in this work, which readers will find to be a novel and unique route to solving their problems.
* Helps engineers understand the effects and behavior of stress waves in various materials
* Aids in the process of engineering design, testing, and evaluation
