Explores the plasticity of materials, focusing on deformation behavior, dislocations, and mechanical properties of metals, ceramics, and polymers.
Explores phase transformations in metals and alloys, discussing kinetics, structural hardening, and dislocation movement obstacles.
Explores plasticity in single crystals, including mechanisms of plastic flow and strain hardening, with a focus on dislocation behavior and geometrically necessary dislocations.
Introduces idealized material models, yield surfaces, and elastoplasticity concepts, including failure typologies and cyclic responses.
