Rezensionen

This book is the first monograph presenting an explicit account of a new material concept: it introduces and explores formations with parameters variable in both space and time and therefore called dynamic materials (DM). Being thermodynamically open systems, DM may be adjusted to a dynamic environment due to unusual effects produced by their mass/momentum/energy exchange with the environment. A number of such effects forms a basis for technical devices that support energy accumulation and its storage in traveling waves, effective sensing, isolation of extended domains in space-time from the invasion of dynamic disturbances, etc. The DM concept is at the same time theoretically significant as the means of material optimization and design in dynamics based on the ideas conceptually different from those traditionally applicable in statics, such as homogenization. All in all, the book by Lurie represents a fundamental work that will become a source of novel conceptual ideas and engineering applications. (Iliya I.
