| Course Objectives | This course aims at a better understanding and formulation of plastic deformation of metals. It also discusses the role of microstructure and thermodynamics in plastic deformation. Different rules and models are discussed in details together with their mathematical representation including Maximum dissipation and normality rule, hardening rules, Non-associated flow rules. Slip line theory is discussed. |
