Synopsis:

Abstract:

Introduction to plasticity of materials and structures in terms of classical continuum mechanics. The first part contains the general incremental theory: yield criteria, strain hardening, loading criterion, flow rule and corresponding physical equations including the deformation theory. Then engineering solutions of elastic-plastic tension, bending, torsion and plastic collapse of bars, beams and pressure vessels are presented. The second part is devoted to methods and knowledge useful for material science: stress concentration and plastic deformation around notches and cracks, limit theorems and their applications to estimation of the plastic collapse, localization of plastic deformation before the fracture, differences between plasticity in plane stress and strain, elastic-plastic response to cyclic load.
