Physics books for (elasticity - hydraustatics)

Click For Summary
SUMMARY

The discussion centers on the search for comprehensive physics references specifically covering elasticity and hydrostatics. The user expresses dissatisfaction with Serway's treatment of elasticity and surface tension, seeking more detailed resources. Recommendations include the book by Landau and Lifgarbagez, which is noted for its superior writing style and depth in explaining elasticity compared to other texts.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of basic physics concepts, particularly mechanics.
  • Familiarity with elasticity and hydrostatics principles.
  • Knowledge of academic physics literature and reference materials.
  • Ability to analyze and interpret scientific texts.
NEXT STEPS
  • Research "Landau and Lifgarbagez Elasticity" for in-depth coverage of elasticity.
  • Explore additional resources on hydrostatics, such as "Fluid Mechanics" by Frank M. White.
  • Investigate other physics textbooks that provide comprehensive discussions on surface tension.
  • Look into online courses or lectures that focus on elasticity and hydrostatics for practical applications.
USEFUL FOR

Students of physics, educators seeking comprehensive teaching materials, and anyone interested in advanced studies of elasticity and hydrostatics.

Can I find a physics reference for these three topics ??

I have Serway but it just mentions elasticity in a short form which is not so good and has no thing about surfacetention - bubbles , what book could have theese topics in an extended form , Just as serway explains motion and electricity and magnetism for example ??

Landau and Lifgarbagez have a book on elasticity, I find their style of writing much better than most.
