Overview
- Thermomechanical predictive theories of phase change are improved by a renewed principle of virtual power
- Coupling of volume damage and of surface adhesion are highly innovative for civil and mechanical engineering
- A novel theory of macroscopic clouds evolution innovates in fluid mechanics
- Mechanical and thermal effects of collisions, involving phase change are accurately and comprehensively predicted
- Includes supplementary material: sn.pub/extras

Reviews
From the reviews:
“These lecture notes present some predictive theories of phenomena involving phase changes with applications in engineering, within the framework of continuum thermo-mechanics. The author investigates some solid-liquid phase changes, volume and surface damage, and phase changes involving temperature discontinuities. … this is a valuable contribution to the phase change theory in continuum mechanics, excluding polar and non-local constitutive behaviour, and it is recommendable to engineers and researchers interested in the field.” (M. Cengiz Dökmeci, Zentralblatt MATH, Vol. 1253, 2013)
