Book Description:
|
This collection to ten tutorial reviews by leading researchers in the field introduces and renews recent advances on irreversible deformation phenomena in solid-state and soft condensed matter physics. The focus in applications is on amorphous materials, crystalline solids under stress and more generally, elastic manifolds driven by external processes. This book addresses in particular nonspecialists and graduate students wishing to enter the field.
