The Continuum Companion to Ethics offers the definitive guide to a key area of contemporary philosophy. The book covers all the fundamental questions asked by meta-ethics and normative ethical theory. Fourteen specially commissioned essays from an international team of experts reveal where important work continues to be done in the field and, most valuably, the exciting new directions the field is taking. The Companion explores issues pertaining to moral methodology, moral realism, ethical expressivism, constructivism and the error theory, morality and practical reason, moral psychology, moral

The book unifies classical continuum mechanics and turbulence modeling, i.e. the same fundamental concepts are used to derive model equations for material behaviour and turbulence closure and complements these with methods of dimensional analysis. The intention is to equip the reader with the ability to understand the complex nonlinear modeling in material behaviour and turbulence closure as well as to derive or invent his own models. Examples are mostly taken from environmental physics and geophysics.

This book presents an introduction into the entire science of Continuum Mechanics in three parts. Part I: Continuum Mechanics introduces into the Foundations using tensors in Cartesian coordinate systems, classical theory of elasticity, and fluid mechanics. Part II: Mechanics of Materials has chapters on viscoelasticity, plasticity, principles of constitutive modelling, and thermodynamics. Part III presents Tensor Analysis and fundamental equations of Continuum Mechanics in curvilinear coordinates.
