Hosford often jumps between macroscopic behavior and microscopic mechanics. The manual helps bridge those gaps in the derivations.
Problem: Calculate the plastic work per volume for a material obeying Hill’s anisotropic criterion. Why manual helps: It walks through the integration of incremental plasticity, a nightmare without a solution key.
