This manual provides comprehensive information on the theory of elasticity, covering deformation and stress, the derivation of equations for finite elasticity, and the formulation of infinitesimal elasticity. It includes applications to two- and three-dimensional static problems, as well as elastic waves. This 1980 edition delves into fundamental principles and their practical applications in mechanical and physical contexts.

The scope of this publication is to serve as a detailed reference for understanding and applying the principles of elasticity. It is intended for individuals engaged in scientific and engineering disciplines who require a thorough grasp of material behavior under stress. The content is structured to facilitate learning and problem-solving in dynamics and general physics, offering insights into complex theoretical frameworks.
