Abstract

This chapter gives an introduction into mechanical principles of continuum mechanics, limit state analysis and failure criteria in general mechanics and a brief introduction into the field of micromechanics and homogenization. The essential equations are presented, but the reader is also referred to advanced literature, in which the strongly summarized contents are explained much more extensively.
