Represents the branch of continuum mechanics that studies the behavior of solid materials, specially their motion and deformation under the action of external or internal agents, such as forces, temperature variations and phase changes.
This term unifies two major areas in mechanical engineering, known as transport phenomena and thermal engineering. The former studies scientific phenomena related to the mass, momentum and energy conservation principles. The latter studies technologies, whose development is based on these principles, related to heating and cooling systems.
