More than six years ago, several of Rabotnov's close friends and
colleagues from the USSR and USA decided to contribute a volume on
Plasticity and Failure of Solids in honor of his 70th birthday. The
celebration was interrupted unexpectedly by his death on May 13,
1985 at which time another decision was made still to publish the
work, but as a memorial volume. As in any field of scientific
endeavor, research confronts the scientists with anomalies; our
chosen area is no exception. The ways in which failure criteria and
plasticity theory are combined can differ widely among the
researchers; they will never yield quite the same results. Each of
the invited contributors has, therefore, been encouraged to express
his views and to expound on his personal opinion. The contributors
are free of enumeration from the authority and/or consensus of any
scientific society or community. What impedes scientific process is
the esoteric tradition of accepting ideas and theories by consensus
among members of societies and communities. The absence of such a
trend is refreshing; the collaboration between the authors from the
USSR and the USA had to be one of the contributing factors.
Finally, the editors wish to acknowledge the authors who have made
the publication of this volume possible. a. c. Sib S. T. Mileiko
