Modelling Small Deformations of Polycrystals

The scientific work of Jean Mandel has been exceptionally rich in the area of the mechanics of solids; the subjects which he has treated have been extremely diverse, from the theory of plasticity, buckling, soil mechanics, visco-elasticity, the theory of reduced models, and thermo­ dynamics, to percolation in porous media. But throughout this com­ prehensive work Jean Mandel has always maintained ...
