Cosserat Theories: Shells, Rods and Points Reviews

`In conclusion, this is a well-written book that covers important aspects of an area of intensive study in current continuum and structural mechanics research. It is a good example of a modern theoretical treatment of the Cosserat theories of structural mechanics and differs from the few existing books in the field by its focus on the mechanical description of the systems of interest through a more simplified mathematical presentation. The researchers in the field will find an excellent collection of important material in the formulation of these nonlinear theories.'
AIAA Journal, 39:5 (2001)
