Plasticity theory is widely used to describe the behaviour of soil
and rock in many engineering situations. Plasticity and
Geomechanics presents a concise introduction to the general subject
of plasticity with a particular emphasis on applications in
geomechanics. Derived from the authors' own lecture notes, this
book is written with students firmly in mind. Excessive use of
mathematical methods is avoided in the main body of the text and,
where possible, physical interpretations are given for important
concepts. In this way the authors present a clear introduction to
the complex ideas and concepts of plasticity as well as
demonstrating how this developing subject is of critical importance
to geomechanics and geotechnical engineering. This book therefore
complements Elasticity and Geomechanics by the same authors and
will appeal to graduate students and researchers in the fields of
soil mechanics, foundation engineering, and geomechanics.
