Non-linearity and breakdown in soft condensed matter : proceedings of a workshop held at Calcutta, India 1-9 December 1993

There have been considerable advances in recent times in understanding many common material processes that are of practical importance, such as nonlinear response, fracture, breakdown, earthquakes, packing, and granular flow, that are of immense practical importance. This has been mainly due to new...
