This book is designed for use as a supplement to the textbook "Plasticity for Structural Engineers" by W.F.Chen and D.J.Han The book is designed to help students and structural engineers learn how to solve typical engineering plasticity problems in general and, more importantly, how to use computers to solve plasticity problems in structural engineering in particular. To this end, specific numerical algorithms in the computer software implementation of the theory together with actual code development are given. A number of solved and supplementary problems are provided, as well as two computer-aided-education (CAE) programs, to enhance the students' understanding of these subjects. This supplement, reference manual on structural mechanics, fracture mechanics, and engineering mechanics is intended for structural and civil engineers, aeronautical, mechanical and materials engineers.
