Computational Methods for Plasticity: Theory and Applications

Theory and Applications by E. Theory and Applications is a self-contained, comprehensive text that will appeal to postgraduate students and research engineers alike wanting either an introduction to the subject or to develop their knowledge of more advanced concepts and applications. Split into 3 parts: It describes the theory of the associated numerical methods for the simulation of a wide range of plastic engineering materials, from the simplest strain plasticity theory to more complex damage mechanics.

Allows the reader to learn all aspects of computational plasticity and its implementation from one volume. Suitable for use at an introductory as well as an advanced level. Accompanied by a purpose-developed software that illustrates many of the techniques discussed in the text, downloadable from an accompanying companion website.

Includes many numerical examples that illustrate the application of the described methodologies. Introductory material on related disciplines and procedures such as tensor analysis, continuum mechanics and computational finite element methods is included, as is a computer program of approximately 11, lines of FORTAN code and many numerical examples that will assist the reader in learning to apply the described methodologies. The subject of computational plasticity encapsulates the numerical methods used for the finite element simulation of the behaviour of a wide range of engineering materials considered to be plastic - i.

Theory and Applications describes the theory of the associated numerical methods for the simulation of a wide range of plastic engineering materials; from the simplest infinitesimal plasticity theory to more complex damage mechanics and finite strain crystal plasticity models. It is split into three parts - basic concepts, small strains and large strains. Beginning with elementary theory and progressing to advanced, complex theory and computer implementation, it is suitable for use at both introductory and advanced levels.

Beginning with elementary theory and progressing to advanced, complex theory and computer implementation, it is suitable for use at both introductory and advanced levels. This comprehensive text will appeal to postgraduate and graduate students of civil, mechanical, aerospace and materials engineering as well as applied mathematics and courses with computational mechanics components.

It will also be of interest to research engineers, scientists and software developers working in the field of computational solid mechanics.
