The stress and strain tensors are fundamental concepts in continuum mechanics.

Yuan-cheng Fung’s A First Course in Continuum Mechanics is a foundational engineering text bridging elementary mechanics with advanced fluid and structural studies through a balanced approach to mathematical rigor and physical intuition. It establishes fundamental concepts of stress, strain, and material behaviors—including elasticity and viscoelasticity—that apply to both traditional materials and, through Fung's work, biological tissues.
