This book is a masterful introduction to the physics of plasticity at the mesoscale by one of the pioneers of the dynamics of dislocations in three dimensions. The text is enriched enormously by Kubin's personal familiarity with the phenomenology of dislocations and plasticity in crystals. Adrian P. Sutton, Imperial College London

Author Information

Ladislas Kubin received his Engineering Diploma from Ecole Centrale Paris in 1966 and his Doctorate in Physical Sciences from Orsay University (Solid State Physics Laboratory) in 1971. Since 1968, he held a full-time research position at CNRS, where he is now Director of Research Emeritus. His research was performed in several laboratories affiliated to CNRS, in Orsay, Toulouse, Poitiers and, since 1988, at the joint CNRS-ONERA unit in Châtillon, near Paris. He is CNRS bronze and silver medalist and Gay-Lussac - von Humboldt awardee. His domains of interest are elementary and collective dislocation properties, mesoscale modelling of dislocations, dislocation dynamics simulations and multi-scale modelling of plasticity. He contributed to the development of the first dislocation dynamics simulations in 2D, 2.5D and 3D.
