Ingenieure und Designer mussen wissen, mit welchen Eigenschaften dann zu rechnen ist. Dieser Band vermittelt Ihnen den aktuellen Wissensstand auf dem Gebiet des plastischen Verhaltens und der plastischen Zug-Spannungs-Beziehungen. Behandelt werden in erster Linie Baustoffe, vor allem Stahl, aber auch Beton und Boden. Eine ausgewogene Mischung aus qualitativer Diskussion und mathematischer Theorie!
