This book is a completely revised English edition of the author's book published in Hungarian in 1975 and in German in 1984. The work provides a comprehensive treatise on the classical theory of plasticity, together with a great number of solution methods and applications on the problems of structural and mechanical engineering. Attention is focused mainly on the formulation and structural applications of the fundamental physical properties and constitutive equations of linearly elastic-perfectly plastic bodies. The treatment is purely phenomenological, and does not enter into the microstructure or the thermodynamics of irreversible deformation processes. Plastic hardening and strain rate effects are briefly reviewed, and the assumption of infinitesimal deformations is adopted. Emphasis is placed on the fundamental relations and theorems of the incremental theory of plastic bodies and on the principles and methods of incremental and limit analysis, optimal design, and shakedown analysis of bar structures, plates and shells.
