Presenting certain key aspects of inelastic solid mechanics centered around viscoelasticity, creep, viscoplasticity, and plasticity, this text is conveniently divided into three parts. The sections focus on the fundamentals of elasticity, useful constitutive laws, and applications to simple structural members. The book provides extended treatment of basic problems in static structural mechanics, including elastic and inelastic effects. It contains worked-out examples and end-of-chapter problems to clarify concepts.
