Using computers to simulate the behavior of engineering materials considered plastic is vital in the work of research engineers and scientists. Here is a complete one-volume guide to computational plasticity, covering the theoretical and practical aspects of computer implementation. It describes the theory of the associated numerical methods for the simulation of a wide range of plastic engineering materials, from the simplest strain plasticity theory to more complex damage mechanics. Software, downloadable from a companion Web site, illustrates many of the techniques discussed. A must-have for those interested in either an introduction or more advanced concepts and applications.
