A Course on Plasticity Theory


Add your own review!

Overview

Plasticity Theory is characterized by many competing and often incompatible points of view. This book seeks to strengthen the foundations of continuum plasticity theory, emphasizing a unifying perspective grounded in the fundamental notion of material symmetry. Steigmann's book offers a systematic framework for the proper understanding of established models of plasticity and for their modern extensions and generalizations. Particular emphasis is placed on the differential-geometric aspects of the subject and their role in illuminating the conceptual foundations of plasticity theory. Classical models, together with several subjects of interest in contemporary research, are developed in a unified format. The book is addressed to graduate students and academics working in the field of continuum mechanics.

Reviews

A very-well conceived book on plasticity theory, with the accent on its fundamentals regarding physical aspects of the subject and its mathematical treatment in the framework of modern continuum mechanics. I strongly and enthusiastically recommend the book. * Vlado A. Lubarda, University of California, San Diego * Any student in mechanics who wants to understand the subject in a concise and effective way will find this book extremely useful. It will become a fundamental textbook in the following decades. * Francesco Dell'Isola, Università dell'Aquila, Italy *
