All materials undergo some deformation under the application of a load. When the load is removed, a solid material may return to original sate or retain some deformation. This book covers the fundamentals of the elastic-plastic deformation. Topics like stress, strain, constitutive relations, fracture, anisotropy and contact problems are included, along with discussion of updated Lagrangian and Eulerian formulations.
