Overview
This is the first comprehensive treatment in book form of free energies of materials with memory
This is the first systematic presentation in book form of a new method of analysis of the evolution equations of viscoelastic materials, using the concept of a minimal state
The various new topics included are firmly rooted on a foundation of Continuum Thermodynamics, which is discussed in detail, including a general abstract formulation of the theory
Constraints imposed by thermodynamics are extensively used
The work is self-contained to a significant degree in that it contains a detailed presentation of Continuum Mechanics and classical theories
This is the first systematic treatment in book for of the Saint Venant
Problem for viscoelastic materials and of the controllibility of thermoelastic systems with memory
Contains new topics in free energy functionals and fractional derivative models
Examines explicit forms of free energies in modelling the behavior of material elements

About this book
The second edition includes a new chapter on thermoelectromagnetism as well as recent findings on minimal states and free energies. It considers the case of minimum free energies for non-simple materials and dielectrics, together with an introduction to fractional derivative models.
