The aim of the subject is to introduce some classical problems in continuum mechanics, and discuss their physical background and related mathematical techniques that have been developed in order to solve these problems. The spectrum of the problems studied during the lecture is deliberately very broad and the lecture should provide a summary of some major achievements in the field.
