This handbook covers a number of the more recent developments
regarding the mechanics of deforming solids. In recent years, much
progress has been reported in the wide-ranging mechanical behaviour
of solids under stress. Here the term stress in a solid arises from
a number of external actions including direct tension, compression,
pressure, bending, shear and torsion. Many of the topics covered
are yet to find their way into the standard texts, which are often
restricted to isotropic elasticity and plasticity.In this
two-volume work, what might previously have been regarded as
disparate, 'specialist' topics have been placed within a wider
mechanics arena to emphasise their common, underlying principles.
That arena is taken generally as one of inelasticity for dealing
with the essential mechanics of these phenomena. Therein, this text
brings together theory, experimental data, key references, examples
and exercises, particularly those that relate to the important
advances in the subject, both old and new. The presentation of
material featured in this way anticipates that in their turn these
additional topics will be recognised as essential material for
study among engineers, physicists and applied mathematicians at
undergraduate and postgraduate levels.
