Foundations of Elastoplasticity: Subloading Surface Model

More about the book

Focusing on elastoplasticity and viscoplasticity, this comprehensive textbook delves into both rate-independent and rate-dependent finite deformations across various materials, including metals, soils, and polymers. It also addresses crystal plasticity and friction phenomena. The text begins with clear explanations of vector-tensor analysis and continuum mechanics, laying a solid foundation of the essential physical concepts necessary for understanding advanced topics in material behavior under stress.
