Physics of asymmetric continuum [electronic resource] : extreme and fracture processes : earthquake rotation and soliton waves / Roman Teisseyre, Hiroyuki Nagahama, Eugeniusz Majewski (eds.)

The monograph summarizes some fundamental theories of continua, in particular those with defect content, and develops asymmetric theory of continuum; the idea of spin and twist motions, the latter related to the shear axes oscillations, leads to the complex rotation field governed by the equations a...
