The study of deformation theory and convexity in solid mechanics addresses the fundamental challenge of predicting material behaviour under extensive loadings and large deformations. Central to this ...

Research in mechanics of solids mainly includes fundamental theory (elasticity, plasticity, variational principles, fatigue and fracture of materials and structures,and inelastic constitutive ...

Phonons are sound particles or quantized vibrations of atoms in solid materials. The Debye model, a theory introduced by physicist Peter Debye in 1912, describes the contribution of phonons to the ...
