High-technology industries using plastic deformation demand soundly-based economical decisions in manufacturing design and product testing, and the unified constitutive laws of plastic deformation give researchers aguideline to use in making these decisions. This book provides extensive guidance in low cost manufacturing without the loss of product quality. Each highly detailed chapter of Unified Constitutive Laws of Plastic Deformation focuses on a distinct set of defining equations. Topics covered include anisotropic and viscoplastic flow, and the overall kinetics and thermodynamics of deformation. This important book deals with a prime topic in materials science and engineering, and will be of great use toboth researchers and graduate students.

From the Back Cover:

The competitive environments of the high-technology industries demand soundly based economical decisions in the design of manufacturing processes and product performance and reliability. Increasing demands are made on the performance of products, while cost reduction remains a critical issue. The development of the unified constitutive laws of plastic deformation helps manufacturers and developers to maintain and expand quality while cutting down production costs.

This book is a summary of the current knowledge of the constitutive laws of plastic deformation. Each chapter is written by a leading expert in the field and will be of particular interest to those involved in the development, design, and operational aspects of forming and shaping manufacturing processes. The book will also be useful to researchers and engineers dealing with the determination and control of the fracture lifetime of components subjected to plastic deformation.
