Nonlinear Elasticity: A Concise Masterclass for Undergraduates

This textbook provides a rigorous yet accessible introduction to Nonlinear Elasticity aimed at undergraduate students in a compact text. Rooted in concepts from first- and second-year undergraduate Linear Algebra and Calculus (and very little Tensor Algebra), the book touches upon all the fundamental aspects of nonlinear elasticity, from the analysis of deformation and stress, to the constitutive response and modelling of soft solids, to the lab experiments required to obtain their material...
