Deformation Geometry for Materials Scientists International Series on Materials Science and Technology

Deformation Geometry for Materials Scientists presents the study of macroscopic geometry of deformation, particularly on crystalline solids. The book discusses a wide range of topics on the deformation of crystalline materials. The text discusses concepts on stress and strain on materials and tensile tests. Linear elastic and plastic deformations; and the macroscopic geometry mechanism of slip and deformation twinning are covered as well. Materials scientists, engineers, and students of materials science will find this book a great reference material.
