The scientific work of Jean Mandel has been exceptionally rich in
the area of the mechanics of solids; the subjects which he has
treated have been extremely diverse, from the theory of plasticity,
buckling, soil mechanics, visco-elasticity, the theory of reduced
models, and thermo dynamics, to percolation in porous media. But
throughout this com prehensive work Jean Mandel has always
maintained his interest in forming connections between the
properties of materials (strength, deformability, viscosity) and
the properties of their basic constituents. What is sometimes
referred to in materials science as the transition from the
microscopic to the macroscopic has for him been a very constant
direction of research, which he never ceased to encourage in the
Laboratoire de Mecanique des Solides of which he was the director.
It is known that in the plasticity of metals permanent deformations
must be sought in intercrystalline slip and more generally in
disloca tions and the various microstructural defects. Before
deformation of polycrystals is tackled, it is necessary to
understand the mechanisms which take place within the crystal: the
different systems of slip which may be activated and also the
elementary mechanisms of twinning. Jean Mandel has shown how to
make the transition from the behaviour of the single crystal to
that of the polycrystal and has given the relation ships between
the overall permanent deformation of the polycrystal and the
plastic deformation of the single crystal."
