Numerical Modelling of Material Deformation Processes by Peter Hartley
The principal aim of this text is to encourage the development and application of numerical modelling techniques as an aid to achieving greater efficiency and optimization of metal-forming processes. The contents of this book have therefore been carefully planned to provide both an introduction to the fundamental theory of material deformation simulation, and also a comprehensive survey of the state-of-the-art of deformation modelling techniques and their application to specific and industrially relevant processes. To this end, leading international figures in the field of material deformation research have been invited to contribute chapters on subjects on which they are acknowledged experts. The information in this book has been arranged in four parts: Part I deals with plasticity theory, Part I with various numerical modelling techniques, Part I with specific process applications and material phenomena and Part IV with integrated computer systems. The objective of Part I is to establish the underlying theory of material deformation on which the following chapters can build. It begins with a chapter which reviews the basic theories of classical plasticity and describes their analytical representations. The second chapter moves on to look at the theory of deforming materials and shows how these expressions may be used in numerical techniques. The last two chapters of Part I provide a review of isotropic plasticity and anisotropic plasticity.
PETER HARTLEY is Professor of Education Development at the University of Bradford where he runs the educational development team. Formerly Professor of Communication at Sheffield Hallam University, he has a longstanding interest in interpersonal communication and student groups, both in terms of theory and the development of practical support and resources. He has devised and produced innovative multimedia to enhance students skills and was one of the team who planned and developed the award-winning 'Making Groupwork Work' online resource, working with colleagues from the LearnHigher Centre for Excellence (CETL). MARK DAWSON is Student Development Co-ordinator with the Learner Development Unit at the University of Bradford. After studying Geography and Earth Science at the University of Edinburgh, he worked at Leeds Metropolitan University with responsibility for managing the student experience, from pre-entry out-reach to final year graduation, co-ordinating activities designed to engage and develop students at all levels of study. He is an experienced facilitator and has supported students with a wide range of personal and academic-related issues.
