Contents:
Structure of crystalline solids and the "defect state" -- Kinematics and kinetics of crystal plasticity -- Overview of strengthening mechanisms -- The lattice resistance -- Solid-solution strengthening -- Precipitation strengthening -- Strain hardening -- Deformation instabilities, polycrystals, flow in metals with nanostructure, superposition of strengthening mechanisms, and transition to continuum plasticity.
Summary: The present book is intended as an advanced text for graduate students in materials science and mechanical engineering. The central processes of strengthening that are presented are modelled by dislocation mechanics in detail and the results are compared extensively with the best available experimental information. The form of the coverage is intended to inspire students or professional practitioners in the field to develop their own models of similar or related phenomena and, finally, engage in more advanced computational simulations, guided by the book.
