Temam and Miranville present core topics within the general themes of fluid and solid mechanics. The brisk style allows the text to cover a wide range of topics including viscous flow, magnetohydrodynamics, atmospheric flows, shock equations, turbulence, nonlinear solid mechanics, solitons, and the nonlinear Schrödinger equation. This second edition will be a unique resource for those studying continuum mechanics at the advanced undergraduate and beginning graduate level whether in engineering, mathematics, physics or the applied sciences. Exercises and hints for solutions have been added to the majority of chapters, and the final part on solid mechanics has been substantially expanded. These additions have now made it appropriate for use as a textbook, but it also remains an ideal reference book for students and anyone interested in continuum mechanics.

Editorial Reviews
Review
"This is an excellent book on mathematical models in continuum mechanics for students and researchers in applied and computational mathematics, engineering, and physical sciences."
Weimin Han, Mathematical Reviews
"... The book lays a foundation which will help the student put these fields into an applied context. The text includes many useful exercises. The books will be a valuable addition to the literature."
Michael Renardy, Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University, SIAM Review
