This study of the problem of the equilibrium of a perfectly plastic body under specific conditions employs tools and methods that can be applied to other areas, including the mechanics of fracture and certain optimal control problems. The three-part approach covers variational problems in plasticity theory, solution of variational problems in the finite-energy spaces, and asymptotic problems and problems in the theory of plates.

Includes a new Foreword by the author.
