Finite Homogeneous Strain, Flow And Rupture Of Rocks (1893)

""Finite Homogeneous Strain, Flow And Rupture Of Rocks"" is a book written by George Ferdinand Becker in 1893. The book explores the behavior of rocks under strain, flow, and rupture, with a focus on finite and homogeneous deformation. Becker discusses various aspects of rock mechanics, including elasticity, plasticity, and fracture mechanics. He also examines the effects of temperature, pressure, and other environmental factors on rock behavior. The book includes numerous illustrations and mathematical formulas to help readers understand the concepts presented. Overall, ""Finite Homogeneous Strain, Flow And Rupture Of Rocks"" is a comprehensive resource for geologists, engineers, and anyone interested in the mechanics of rock deformation.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
