Abstract
The tensor analysis providing the mathematical foundation for the continuum mechanics is described in Chapter 1. Basic concepts and quantities for continuum mechanics will be studied in the three chapters up to Chapter 4. The description of motion and deformation of a material body constitutes the basic introductory part of the continuum mechanics. Various expressions of motion and a variety of strain and strain rate measures are employed for the description of reversible and irreversible deformations of materials. Some selected basic expressions and measures will be explained in this chapter.
