Opis

This book presents the theoretical and experimental foundations of quasi-static deformation of elastoplastic and viscoplastic materials and structural elements made of them. Experimental studies of deformation and fracture of materials under complex loading under impulse influences are described and discussed. A short introduction of theoretical and numerical methods for studying the stress–strain state of elastoplastic structural elements under dynamic, impulse loading and their interaction with other media is given.

Prof. Dr Leonid A. Igumnov  is doctor of Physical and Mathematical Sciences, professor, and head of the Department of Theoretical, Computer and Experimental Mechanics of National Research Lobachevsky State University of Nizhny Novgorod. He is honorary worker of Science and Technology of the Russian Federation. He is one of the talented representatives of the scientific school of strength of materials, founded by Professor A.G. Ugodchikov (1920-2007). His research interests include models of the mechanics of damaged medium; methods for assessing the strength and service life of materials and structures under quasi-static and cyclic loading conditions with account for the fields of various physical nature; and experimental and theoretical approach to studying the dynamics and failure of materials subjected to high-speed loading.

 

Prof. Dr Anatoliy Bragov—doctor of Technical Sciences, professor, and head of the laboratory of the Research Institute for Mechanics of National Research Lobachevsky State University of Nizhny Novgorod—is one of the representatives of the scientific school of strength of materials, founded by Professor A.G. Ugodchikov (1920-2007). He is a recognized specialist in the field of dynamic strength of materials and structural elements, experimental mechanics of deformable solids and physics of fast processes. The scientific activity of him for more than 40 years is inextricably linked with the development and creation of the latest experimental methods and studies of the processes of high-speed deformation and destruction of materials of various physical nature (metals and alloys, nanomaterials, polymers and composites, ceramics, wood, soils, rocks, etc.) under intense impacts of the microsecond range.
