Mechanical Behavior of Materials: Second EditionThis outstanding text offers a comprehensive treatment of the principles of the mechanical behavior of materials. Appropriate for senior and graduate courses, it is distinguished by its focus on the relationship between macroscopic properties, material microstructure, and fundamental concepts of bonding and crystal structure. The current, second edition retains the original editions extensive coverage of nonmetallics while increasing coverage of ceramics, composites, and polymers that have emerged as structural materials in their own right and are now competitive with metals in many applications. It contains new case studies, includes solved example problems, and incorporates real-life examples.

... displacement of the upper and lower surfaces of the solid illustrated . The shear stress is defined as the magnitude of the shearing force divided by the cross - sectional area over which it acts ; the shear stress is designated T. The ...
... displacement results in bond distortion at the atomic level . Atoms are represented by the open circles and atomic bonds by the " springs . " The shear strain arises from the " bending " of the atomic bonds . within a solid . This can ...
... displaced upwards and to the left to define the equivalent σT - ET point . The difference between the true and engineering stresses and strains increases with plastic deformation . Thus , at low strains , σT σE and ET EE , so that , for ...
... displacement takes place that is the true cause of this plastic deformation . In this section , we review briefly a technique- the Mohr's circle representation - that permits graphical description of the relation- ships among the ...
... displacements than is a uniaxial one . The principle of super- position of stress tells us that the stress state corresponding to biaxial tension is ob- tained by combining the results of analyses applied to the individual stress states ...
