Summary

Mastering Plasticity: A Unified Approach to Continuum Mechanics

Plasticity Theory is often fragmented by competing and incompatible viewpoints. This book seeks to consolidate the foundations of continuum plasticity theory, emphasizing a unifying perspective rooted in the fundamental concept of material symmetry.

Steigmann’s work provides a systematic framework for a deeper understanding of established plasticity models, as well as their modern extensions and generalizations.…

What They're Saying

Critics Review

A very-well conceived book on plasticity theory, with the accent on its fundamentals regarding physical aspects of the subject and its mathematical treatment in the framework of modern continuum mechanics. I strongly and enthusiastically recommend the book. * Vlado A. Lubarda, University of California, San Diego *Any student in mechanics who wants to understand the subject in a concise and effective way will find this book extremely useful. It will become a fundamental textbook in the following decades. * Francesco Dell’Isola, Università dell’Aquila, Italy *
