This book illustrates the deep roots of the geometrically nonlinear kinematics of
generalized continuum mechanics in differential geometry. Besides applications to first-
order elasticity and elasto-plasticity an appreciation thereof is particularly illuminating
for generalized models of continuum mechanics such as second-order (gradient-type)
elasticity and elasto-plasticity.
After a motivation that arises from considering geometrically linear first- and second-
order crystal plasticity in Part I several concepts from differential geometry, relevant
for what follows, such as connection, parallel transport, torsion, curvature, and metric
for holonomic and anholonomic coordinate transformations are reiterated in Part II.
Then, in Part III, the kinematics of geometrically nonlinear continuum mechanics
are considered. There various concepts of differential geometry, in particular aspects
related to compatibility, are generically applied to the kinematics of first- and second-
order geometrically nonlinear continuum mechanics. Together with the discussion on
the integrability conditions for the distortions and double-distortions, the concepts
of dislocation, disclination and point-defect density tensors are introduced. For
concreteness, after touching on nonlinear fir
st- and second-order elasticity, a detaileddiscussion of the kinematics of (multiplicative) first- and second-order elasto-plasticity
is given. The discussion naturally culminates in a comprehensive set of different types
of dislocation, disclination and point-defect density tensors. It is argued, that these
can potentially be used to model densities of geometrically necessary defects and the
accompanying hardening in crystalline materials. Eventually Part IV summarizes the
above findings on integrability whereby distinction is made between the straightforward
conditions for the distortion and the double-distortion being integrable and the more
involved conditions for the strain (metric) and the double-strain (connection) being
integrable.
The book addresses readers with an interest in continuum modelling of solids from
engineering and the sciences alike, whereby a sound knowledge of tensor calculus and
continuum mechanics is required as a prerequisite.

Right of withdrawal
If you are a consumer you can withdraw from the contract in accordance with the following. Consumer means any natural person who is acting for purposes which are outside his trade, business, craft or profession.
Information regarding the right of withdrawal
Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.
To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back, or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.
You shall send back the goods or hand them over to Mispah books, Redhill, Surrey, United Kingdom, without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.
Exceptions to the right of withdrawal
The right of withdrawal does not apply to:
- The delivery of newspapers, journals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts; and
- The supply of digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium (e.g. on a CD or DVD) if you accepted when you placed your order that we could start to deliver it, and that you could not withdraw once delivery had started.
