⭐This book was suggested to me by a prof when I first started graduate school. I had just started introduction to continuum mechanics and this book was a bit over my head, but if you give it some serious effort and have already mastered some of the concepts from continuum this will be a great aid towards nonlinear elasticity and plasticity. The methods contained involve use of tensors and a good reference on tensors would also be a great companion to this book. However all in all this book concisely contains a wealth of information and derives some critical equations of elasticity. Don’t judge the year of publishing either as this was one of the books by A.E.Green an eminent mechanician responsible for many developments in nonlinear elasticity.

⭐Great classical work. Pretty technical, but covers a lot of applications of elasticity theory.

⭐Book is in perfect condition.

⭐I have gone to Green and Zerna for its treatment of plane strain in terms of complex variables. Here it covers much of the material found in Muskhelishvili’s

⭐, but using a more modern approach that employs the Einstein summation notation. Mushkhelishvili’s treatment of plane strain is more intuitively accessible, while that of Green and Zerna is more elegant and more familiar to the modern reader.

⭐This book is exactly about what the title declares:”Theoretical elasticity”. It contains all the necessary mathematical framework (tensors in curvilinear coordinate systems) in the first chapter. This chapter also introduces the reader to the complex potentials method. The second chapter is about continuum kinematics, stress and strain. Chapters 3 and 4 deal with finite deformations, while the well-known infinitesimal theory (the theory of elasticity which all books on the subject include) shows up in the 5th chapter. Chapter 6 is about plane strain (anisotropic bodies and complex variable methods included). Plate theory is presented in chapter 7. Chapters 8 and 9 are about plane problems for isotropic and anisotropic bodies using complex variable methods, really a very good collection of classical problems. Finally, chapters 10-16 are devoted to shell theory.In my oppinion it is one of the best, almost all-inclusive books on the subject.

⭐Good

⭐This book is an excellent book on the subject available. I have used the book for my classes and I love it. Its really useful.

⭐It’s OK.
