Which Books Offer the Toughest Problems on Mechanical Properties for Olympiads?

AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on finding the most challenging problem books related to the mechanical properties of solids and fluids, particularly those suitable for olympiad preparation. A list of recommended texts includes "Advanced Mechanics of Materials" by Arthur P. Boresi and Richard J. Schmidt, "Advanced Strength and Applied Elasticity" by Ansel C. Ugural and Saul K. Fenster, and "Mechanical Behavior of Materials" by Marc André Meyers, among others. The original poster expresses uncertainty about the quality of questions in these books and seeks input on their effectiveness for rigorous study in these subjects.

TL;DR Summary: I need the toughest problem books for mechanical properties of solids and mechanical properties of fluids, much better if they're relevant for olympiads.

Thread 'Ashcroft and Mermin: revised edition'

Hi, I have notice that Ashcroft, Mermin and Wei worked at a revised edition of the original solid state physics book (here). The book, however, seems to be never available. I have also read that the reason is related to some disputes related to copyright. Do you have any further information about it? Did you have the opportunity to get your hands on this revised edition? I am really curious about it, also considering that I am planning to buy the book in the near future... Thanks!
