Handbook of Engineering Plasticity (in 2 Volumes)

Angebote / Angebote:

This book brings together those elements of the mechanics of plasticity most pertinent to engineers. The presentation of the introductory material, the theoretical developments and the use of appropriate experimental data appear within 16 chapters, plus an appendix containing worked solutions to selected exercises. A textbook style has been adopted in which worked examples and exercises illustrate the application of the theoretical material. The latter is provided with appropriate references to journals and other published sources.The package of topics presented is intended to complement advanced monographs on the theory of plasticity. The unique blend of contents is intended to support syllabuses across a diversity of undergraduate courses including manufacturing, engineering mechanics, strength of materials and applied mathematics.The present book has a broader content than most contemporary works on plasticity. The latter offer specialist studies on metal forming, numerical simulation, microstructural processes and various material models. Here, as the subject has developed, so have authors found the requisite material to provide a selective discourse among the subject's multiple facets. There are few works, other than the present proposal, that attempt to assemble all that the subject presently contains. The contents list details these in a spread of topics within a two-volume monograph, that include worked examples and exercise sections to which appended solutions are offered.
