The Mechanical and Thermodynamical Theory of Plasticity (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9780849372308)

Spanning every significant facet of the mechanical and thermodynamics theories of plasticity, this book provides a complete and accessible introduction to continuum mechanics and thermodynamics for those with minimal background. Going beyond what is found in a typical text, the author, a highly experienced instructor, covers what is needed to develop and select plasticity models, or use them for solving static and dynamic problems. He also provides professionals with the material to develop advanced models and evaluate leading edge applications. The book covers rate dependent and temperature dependent plasticity, anisotropic plasticity, thermodynamic constraints, and crystal plasticity.
