Reviews

The text is rather self-contained with a clear structure, the material is presented nicely which makes it accessible to young researchers, the style is fluent and the examples are carefully selected. The monograph confirms the existence of strong interaction between mechanics and applied mathematics. It will certainly acquire an important position in everybody's Mechanics and Applied Mathematics library. Mathematical Reviews, 2012
