Applied Plasticity, Second Edition

Beschreibung

Applied Plasticity, Second Edition, covers advanced topics in plasticity comprehensively and in detail. This new edition has been updated throughout and includes a large set of homework problems for each chapter, making it ideal for classroom use. All relevant topics are covered, including the mathematical theory of plasticity, the theory of plane plastic stress, the axially symmetrical plastic state, the plastic behavior of plates and shells, the plasticity of metal forming processes, the theory of buckling in the plastic range, topics in dynamic plasticity, and the finite element method. Features of the new edition include: A full chapter on the Finite Element Method, previously published as an appendix; A new section on yield line theory for plate bending, including the estimation of upper bounds on the limit load; Updated chapters throughout to reflect recent advances and new developments in the field; Homework problems for chapters one through eight; A solutions manual available to professors; Fully updated references.  Applied Plasticity, Second Edition, is appropriate for use by graduate students studying mechanical, civil, and structural engineering, as well as applied mechanics, and will also serve as a useful reference for engineers working in these fields.

Intended for graduate students in mechanical, civil, or structural engineering, or in applied mechanics, this text covers advanced topics in plasticity that have thus far been accessible only in review articles widely scattered through the literature. Practicing engineers will thus also find it a useful reference.

This new edition will be completely updated beginning with the fundamentals of the mathematical theory of plasticity, presented in sufficient detail to make the text self- sufficient. The discussion then turns to the theory of plastic stress and its applications to structural analysis and sheet metal forming. This is followed by treatments of axially symmetrical systems and some three-dimensional problems; of the plastic behavior of plates and shells, discussed mainly from the point of view of limit analysis; and of the plasticity of metals with fully developed orthotropic anisotropy and the plastic behavior of anisotropic sheets. The generalized tangent-modulus theory of buckling in the plastic range for columns, plates and shells is treated from the point of view of the bifurcation phenomenon. The concluding chapter deals with a wide range of topics in dynamic plasticity including wave propagation, armor penetration, and structural impact in the plastic range. This new edition includes a full chapter on the Finite Element Method, which appeared in the previous version as an appendix, as well as a large number of homework problems for each chapter. A solutions manual is available for professors.
