Topics in the mechanics of soft and bio-materials

Topics in the mechanics of soft and bio-materials

This course aims to provide an introduction to the mechanics of soft materials, of which biological materials are prominent examples. Soft materials are those that can be easily deformed by external stress, electromagnetic fields or even thermal fluctuations: in other words everything that is wet, squishy, sticky, flabby or spongy.
