Publisher's Synopsis
Plastic Deformation: Principles and Theories is a comprehensive book written by L. N. Kachanow that covers the fundamental principles and theories related to plastic deformation in materials. The book is intended for students and researchers in the field of materials science and engineering who are interested in understanding the mechanisms of plastic deformation and its effects on the mechanical properties of materials.The book begins with an introduction to the basic concepts of plastic deformation, including the difference between elastic and plastic deformation, the yield strength of materials, and the various types of plastic deformation. The author then discusses the mechanisms of plastic deformation, including dislocation theory, slip systems, and the role of defects in materials.The book also covers the various theories of plastic deformation, including the strain hardening theory, the strain rate sensitivity theory, and the deformation mechanism maps. The author discusses the experimental methods used to study plastic deformation, including tensile testing, compression testing, and torsion testing.In addition, the book covers the effects of plastic deformation on the mechanical properties of materials, including the strength, ductility, and toughness of materials. The author also discusses the applications of plastic deformation in various industries, including aerospace, automotive, and manufacturing.Overall, Plastic Deformation: Principles and Theories is a valuable resource for anyone interested in understanding the mechanisms of plastic deformation and its effects on the mechanical properties of materials. The book is well-written, comprehensive, and provides a thorough overview of the subject matter.Additional Authors Include W. Mostow And A. N. Gleyzal. Edited And Introduction By Henry. H.
