Matrix-Tensor Methods in Continuum Mechanics

(Revised Second Printing)

By: S F Borg

The purposes of the text are: To introduce the engineer to the very important discipline in applied mathematics-tensor methods as well as to show the fundamental unity of the different fields in continuum mechanics-with the unifying material formed by the matrix-tensor theory and to present to the engineer modern engineering problems.

Earthquake Engineering: Mechanism, Damage Assessment And Structural Design (Second And Revised Edition)

By: Sidney F Borg

This book is the expanded version of the earlier (first edition) text. It presents new comprehensive rational quantitative theories (utilizing fundamental energy concepts throughout) covering the entire earthquake event from the point of view of the engineer. It starts with a mathematical analysis of an underground mechanism (the earthquake), then proceeds to determinations of the timewise and spacewise variations of the fundamental engineering damage-design parameter, the ground energy. Finally, the new theories are applied to a number of typical (actual) structural and non-structural design problems. Each chapter of the first edition has now been improved and enlarged and new chapters have been added to include recent research by the author and his graduate students.

Fundamentals Of Engineering Elasticity (Revised 2nd Printing)

By: Sidney F Borg

The two fundamental premises of the original edition have been adhered to, namely: To obtain a real understanding of “mechanics of materials” we must go back to the beginnings of the fields i.e the linearized mathematical theory of elasticity; Secondly, the subject of engineering elasticity is a natural one to use in introducing to the undergraduate engineering student the important topic of tensors.
