Mechanical Behavior of Materials. Different kinds of materials respond differently when they undergo basic mechanical tests. This is illustrated in Eigure 15, which shows stress—strain diagrams for purely viscous and purely elastic materials. With the former, the stress is reheved by viscous flow and is independent of strain. With the latter, there is a direct dependence of stress on strain and the ratio of the two is the modulus E (or G).

The point of view adopted toward thermodynamics in this book is the classic or phenomenological one. This approach is the most general but also the least illuminating in molecular insight. The three basic principles of phenomenological thermodynamics are extracted as postulates from general experience, and no attempt is made to deduce them from equations describing the mechanical behavior of material... 

VISCOELASTICITY. Mechanical behavior of material which exhibits viscous and delayed clastic response to stress in addition to instantaneous elasticity. Such properries can be considered to be associated with rate effects—time derivatives of arbitrary order of both stress and strain appearing in the constitutive equation—or hereditary or memory influences which include the history of the stress and strain variation from the undisturbed state. See also Rheology.

A) As the material is cooled it undergoes a martensitic transformation. By transforming to equal amounts of two variants, the macroscopic shape is retained. (B) Deformation occurs by movement of variant boundaries so the more favorably oriented variant grows at the expense of the other. Reprinted with permission of Cambridge University Press from W. F.

The continuum mechanics of solids and fluids serves as fhe prototypical example of the strategy of turning a blind eye to some subset of the full set of microscopic degrees of freedom. From a continuum perspective, the deformation of the material is captured kinematically through the existence of displacement or velocity fields, while fhe forces exerted on one part of the continuum by the rest are described via a stress tensor field. For many problems of interest to the mechanical behavior of materials, it suffices to build a description purely in terms of deformation fields and their attendant forces. A review of the key elements of such theories is the subject of this chapter. However, we should also note that the purview of continuum models is wider than that described here, and includes generalizations to liquid crystals, magnetic materials, superconductors and a variety of other contexts.
