World Scientific Pub. Co. will soon (2008 Winter) publish a new graduate textbook on Micromechanics and Nanomechanics. The book is based on a lecture notes that have been used in Berkeley for seven years. Reading of book requires minimum knowledge of continuum mechanics and mathematics, and the book is intended for the first year graduate students as well as those practitioners who have no time to read the literature for self-study.
Shaofan, congratulations on
Shaofan, congratulations on this important accomplishment......
To students: I used big parts of Shaofan's book (pre-published version) when I taught micromechanics at University of Houston. It is an excellent textbook---quite suitable for self-learning and thus fills a strong pedagogical need in this subject.
Very timely
Shaofan,
Congratulations! This is very timely. I plan to teach nanomaterials and will use this book.
