We present applications of the group theory to the solution and systematization of several problems in the theory of differential equations (for instance, a base for the method of separation of variables), classical mechanics (for instance, the analytic form of the Lagrangian), relativity theory, quantum mechanics, and elementary particle physics. By this comprehensive work we wish to give the reader a number of preliminary notions and examples which are absolutely necessary for a better understanding of certain works, in different domains, which are based on applications of group theory. The present volume is a new edition of a volume published in 1985, ("e;Aplicatii ale teoriei grupurilor in mecanica si fizica"e;, Editura Tehnica, Bucharest, Romania). This new edition contains many improvements concerning the presentation, as well as new topics using an enlarged and updated bibliography. In addition to the large area of domains in physics covered by this volume, we are presenting both discrete and continuous groups, while most of the books about applications of group theory in physics present only one type of groups (i.e., discrete or continuous), and the number of analyzed groups is also relatively small (i. e., point groups of crystallography, or the groups of rotations and translations as examples of continuous groups; some very specialized books study the Lorentz and Poincare groups of relativity theory). The work requires as preliminaries only the mathematical knowledge acquired by a student in a technical university. It is addressed to a large audience, to all those interested and compelled to use mathematical methods in various fields of research, such as mechanics, physics, engineering, people involved in research or teaching, as well as students.

Covering classical elasticity theory in an encyclopaedic fashion, this work has been written by one of the world's leading authorities in the field and reflects the particularly complex character of deformable solids, where computer modeling is rarely simple.

This last title in a three-volume work studies analytical mechanics. Coverage includes such topics as Lagrangian and Hamiltonian mechanics, the Hamilton-Jacobi method, and a study of systems with separate variables.

As it was already seen in the first volume of the present book, its guideline is precisely the mathematical model of mechanics. The classical models which we refer to are in fact models based on the Newtonian model of mechanics, on its five principles, i.

This book examines the study of mechanical systems as well as its links to other sciences of nature. It presents the fundamentals behind how mechanical theories are constructed and details the solving methodology and mathematical tools used: vectors, tensors and notions of field theory.

This interdisciplinary work creates a bridge between the mathematical and the technical disciplines by providing a strong mathematical tool. The present book is a new, English edition of the volume published in 1999. It contains many improvements, as well as new topics, using enlarged and updated references.

The notion of group is fundamental in our days, not only in mathematics, but also in classical mechanics, electromagnetism, theory of relativity, quantum mechanics, theory of elementary particles, etc.
