No longer offered. It’s in Waterloo’s scanned calendars from 1970–71 to 1971–72 (before that, 1963–64 to 1966–67 used the number for Conduction Heat Transfer and Market Research, Product Analysis, and Resource Allocation); the 1995–96 to 2023–24 calendars are on ucalendar.
Mathematical preliminaries; co-ordinate transformations, introduction to tensors, tensor fields and transformations, integral theorems. Analysis of deformation; deformation tensors and rates of deformation tensors and their mechanical significance, convecting and rotating axes. Analysis of stress; definition of stresses and their physical significance, rates of stresses, objective stress rates. Fundamental laws, conservation of mass, momentum and energy, thermodynamics of a continuous media. Constitutive equations. Rheology.
As printed in the 1970–71 to 1971–72 calendars, read by OCR; the scanned page is the original.
