Explores models for plastic deformation in glassy and semi-crystalline polymers, including the Eyring model and the influence of secondary transitions.
Explores plasticity, tensile ductility, stress-strain curves, radiation-induced embrittlement, and necking in materials.
Explores material strength, hardness, and toughness, covering ductility, plastic deformation, fracture, and hardness testing methods.
Covers the concept of toughness of materials, emphasizing resistance to crack propagation and plastic deformation.
