Editorial Review: This book describes the theoretical foundations of inelasticity, its numerical formulation and implementation. The subject matter described herein constitutes a representative sample of state-of-the- art methodology currently used in inelastic calculations. Among the numerous topics covered are small deformation plasticity and viscoplasticity, convex optimization theory, integration algorithms for the constitutive equation of plasticity and viscoplasticity, the variational setting of boundary value problems and discretization by finite element methods. Also addressed are the generalization of the theory to non-smooth yield surface, mathematical numerical analysis issues of general return mapping algorithms, the generalization to finite-strain inelasticity theory, objective integration algorithms for rate constitutive equations, the theory of hyperelastic-based plasticity models and small and large deformation viscoelasticity. Computational Inelasticity will be of great interest to researchers and graduate students in various branches of engineering, especially civil, aeronautical and mechanical, and applied mathematics.
Customer Reviews
Average Rating: 
Rating: - Good for reference but difficult to first time learners
Pros: gives numerical solution algorithms for isotropic and kinematic hardening, etc; covers a wide range of plasticity problems.
Cons: lack of detailed step by step deduction for some important equations, difficult to swallow by first time learners
Rating: - very complete and useful
I bought this book several years ago, and keep going back and study more in it. As usual, I didn't read it from front to back. Instead I started from the middle, jumped around and then settled for chapter 7. That's mainly a review of continuum mechanics, and one of the reasons I keep this book handy. It is very comprehensive and very clear. I think the reason Simo and Hughes could explain things so clear is because they just really deeply understood it. There is hardly any superfluous talking or ... Read More
Rating: - review for Computational Inelasticity - J.C. Simo
the book is in excellent condition and reached me well before the estimated time. Worth the money...Great transaction and look forward for many more ahead on Amazon.
Rating: - Absolutely amazing
I strongly recommend this book. It gives insights that no other books give. A solid mathematical background and a wide scope are the fundamental book characteristics.
Rating: - Absolutely Accept No Substitute
This book is really well organised, and the theory is well presented, particularly Chapter 1. It is among the few which I highly recommend, and it is value for money.
