ME 7850 - Plasticity Theory and Application


Theory of plasticity, stress-strain relations for perfectly plastic and strain hardening materials, yield criteria and constitutive equations of plastic bodies, solving some elementary boundary value problems of plasticity.

Requisites: (CE 6230 or ME 5630 or 6630) and ME 6970
Credit Hours: 3
Repeat/Retake Information: May not be retaken.
