Summary
The second chapter deals with the fundamental of continuum mechanics. It describes stresses and strains in a continuum. This is followed by fundamental laws of mechanics and constitutive relations. Elasticity and Hooke's law are described. Next, the chapter describes poroelasticity as well as poroplasticity, followed by fracture mechanics. Finally, rock physics models as applied to pore pressure detection are described.
