Submitted by kapornith on

Hi,

I am looking for a good citation (or perhaps a detailed explaination) on the difference between material co-ordinate and eulerian co-ordinate system.Please treat me a beginner in the field of continuum mechanics.Thanks for your help in advance.

Regards

Kapil


Dear Kapil, I fear that the question you posed cannot be satisfactorily answered by available textbooks on continuum mechanics. You may however grasp the basic notions and the involved concepts from a recent paper by myself and R. Barretta:
