During the oil embargo, in the winter 1973174, parts of Western Europe present- ed an almost war-like aspect on Saturdays and Sundays: no traffic on the high- ways, no crowds at ski resorts and other weekend entertainment places, no gaso- line at the pumps.
This book grew out of an introductory course that I was invited to teach on a number of occasions to senior and graduate level students at the University of Kid.
The notion of continuum thermodynamics, adopted in this book, is primarily understood as a strategy for development of continuous models of various physical systems.
Following the long tradition of the Schuler Company, the Metal For- ming Handbook presents the scientific fundamentals of metal forming technology in a way which is both compact and easily understood.
The explosion in the scale of production of polymers has made our daily life more convenient during the past several decades, and caused serious discus- sion on recycling and safety.
