Theory of Flow and Fracture of Solids (Vol.1)
Theory of Flow and Fracture of Solids (Volume One) by A. Nadai is a classic and highly influential treatise in the field of engineering mechanics and plasticity. As an expansion of the author's earlier work on plastic deformation, this volume provides a rigorous mathematical and physical exploration of how solids yield, flow, and eventually fracture under various loading conditions. Key topics include the theory of the plastic state, stress-strain relations beyond the elastic limit, and the mechanical behavior of materials in industrial processes like rolling and forging. This monograph is a vital reference for materials scientists and mechanical engineers, offering fundamental insights into the structural integrity and deformation limits of solid materials.
