    Abstract

    The purpose of this book is to introduce the basic knowledge about the classic elasticity theory and the associated newly research achievements by the authors. The whole book is
    constructed on the basis of the course syllabuses and the contents of elasticity
    used in the past few years at Beijing Institute of Technology, China, and the University of Manchester, UK. In order to meet the requirement of bilingual pedagogic development in higher education, and with reference to some classic text books on elasticity,the readers’ feedback on the first edition of the book and newly-obtained teaching and learning outputs, such a content arrangement of this book can currently be more appropriate and convenient for readers to study elasticity under the dual-language environment.

    By reading this book as well as other relevant Chinese- and English-version textbooks, the readers should be able to command the fundamental knowledge of elasticity, comprehend some related standard technical terms and enhance their level of professional English. The book is intended for senior undergraduate and postgraduate students, especially for engineering mechanics students, of higher education engineering institutes. It can also be considered as an English reference for engineers, researchers and novices.
