Product Description
Review
"...an excellent book for those needing a comprehensive understanding of the mechanical and thermal behavior of solids." Choice
Product Description
Elasticity, plasticity, damage mechanics and cracking are all phenomena that determine the resistance of solids to deformation and fracture. The authors of this book discuss a modern method of mathematically modeling the behavior of macroscopic volume elements. The first three chapters review physical mechanisms at the microstructural level, thermodynamics of irreversible processes, mechanics of continuous media, and the classification of the behavior of solids. The rest of the book is devoted to the modeling of different types of material behavior. In each case the authors present characteristic data for numerous materials, and discuss the physics underlying the phenomena together with methods for the numerical analysis of the resulting equations.

4.0 out of 5 stars
An advanced book for the plasticity continuum mechanics,
By A Customer
This review is from: Mechanics of Solid Materials (Paperback)
I find it a great book, however the reader must have some knowledge on basic/advanced plasticity topics despite its introductory chapters. Chapters 5,6 and 7 are precious describing recents theories in flow laws, hardening rules, viscoplasticity and damage mechanics.
