The Mechanical Engineering Series features graduate texts and research monographs to
address the need for information in contemporary mechanical engineering, including
areas of concentration of applied mechanics, biomechanics, computational mechanics,
dynamical systems and control, energetics, mechanics of materials, processing, produc
tion systems, thermal science, and tribology.

Series Preface
Mechanical engineering, and engineering discipline born of the needs of the indus
trial revolution, is once again asked to do its substantial share in the call for indus
trial renewal. The general call is urgent as we face profound issues of productivity
and competitiveness that require engineering solutions, among others. The Me
chanical Engineering Series is a series featuring graduate texts and research mono
graphs intended to address the need for information in contemporary areas of me
chanical engineering.
The series is conceived as a comprehensive one that covers a broad range of
concentrations important to mechanical engineering graduate education and re
search. We are fortunate to have a distinguished roster of consulting editors, each
an expert in one of the areas of concentration. The names of the consulting editors
are listed on page vi of this volume. The areas of concentration are applied me
chanics, biomechanics, computational mechanics, dynamic systems and control,
energetics, mechanics of materials, processing, thermal science, and tribology.
