The Mathematical Theory of Elasticity (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781138374355)

Richard B. Hetnarski, PE, is professor emeritus in the Department of Mechanical Engineering at the Rochester Institute of Technology. He has also held positions at Cornell University, NASA, and the Polish Academy of Sciences. Dr. Hetnarski is the founder and president of the International Congresses on Thermal Stresses (ICTS) and the founder and editor of the Journal of Thermal Stresses. He has published extensively in the areas of mechanics and mathematics.

Józef Ignaczak is professor emeritus in the Institute of Fundamental Technological Research of the Polish Academy of Sciences, where he was awarded the 50-year Anniversary Medal. Dr. Ignaczak has also been a recipient of the Golden Cross of Merit and the Polonia Restituta Cross (KKOOP) from the Polish State Council; the Twentieth Century Achievement Award, the Presidential Seal of Honor, the Platinum Record for Exceptional Performance, and the 2000 Millennium Medal of Honor from the American Biographical Institute (ABI); and the Honorary Achievement Award from the 1997 Symposium on Thermal Stresses. Over the years, his research has focused on the development of linear elastodynamics and dynamic coupled classical and nonclassical thermoelasticity.
