"This book has been written in a way that a plasticity course can be offered to graduate students without previous solid mechanics background. The concept of Cartesian vectors and tensors in index notation is discussed in chapter 2 to prepare students for understanding the topics presented in subsequent chapters. ... This book emphasizes the application of plasticity in solving engineering problems. Eulerian and updated Lagrangian formulations, calculus of variations and extreme principles are discussed in chapters 6 and 7 to prepare students for numerical calculation."-Han-Chin Wu, University of Iowa, Iowa City, USA
"The book is successful in presenting a modern treatment of plasticity theories without sacrificing details both at the conceptual and the applied level. The breadth of applications covered is unique and includes a wide range of
disciplines ranging from contact mechanics to fracture. In this the book will find no parallels in the modern literature on plasticity."
-Prof. Anurag Gupta, Indian Institute of Technology Kanpur
"Comprehensive coverage from mathematic tools to constitutive formulations, from application examples to computational aspects."
-Tongxi Yu, Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (HKUST)
